6 Years Later.
"Xiaoyi!"
Li Caiyi tucked her hair behind her ears before turning around. From a distance, she could see Li Chunhua running over with a bright smile on her face.
"Why are you in so much of a hurry?" Xiaoyi smiled when her sister finally stopped in front of her.
"Hehe, it''s been a while since we hung out together, after all!" Li Chunhua hugged her arms intimately as they began to walk together. The older twin chuckled.
"We often meet on weekends; what are you talking about?"
Li Chunhua puffed out her cheeks in disagreement. "You only stayed for dinner, then you will immediately return to your ce. We don''t have much time to catch up at all! Mom is worried because you keep getting busy too."
"Haha, sorry about that. I''m indeed pretty busy thesest few weeks."
"Even Brother Jie is around the house more often than you. Seriously, you two. Think about how lonely Mom must have felt!"
"Is Brother Jie doing fine with his internship?"
"Yeah. I heard his seniors and colleagues praise him a lot for hispetency. Still, apparently, they kind of avoided him when they had no work-rted topics to talk about."
Li Caiyi couldn''t me those people. Dealing with Li Junjie most definitely wasn''t easy.
"What about you, Xiaohua? How is work going for you?"
Li Chunhua sighed. "It''s moreplicated than I thought, but I''ll manage. There is this construction project for a residential area on the outskirts of the city soon, and ourpany is trusted to manage the design of the house. We have been so busy since then."
A project for a residential area, huh? Li Caiyi vaguely remembered that something like that did happen in her previous life. The idea was to use the barrennd and reform the house around it into a suburbanmunity.
However, that project should be relocated elsewhere due to the sudden transfer ofnd ownership. Later, thatnd was used for another project. Even the media didn''t cover how and why that happened.
The abandoned building that Li Caiyi jumped off from was supposed to be one building that was included in that new project. Then, a terrible ident happened during construction, and that project was stopped middleway.
Since then, rumors circted that misfortune would happen to those who wanted to use thend or thatnd was protected by a mysterious energy. Eventually, people abandoned it.
Li Caiyi didn''t expect this matter would be mentioned by Li Chunhua. "Are you going to be included in that new project?"
"Hmm, I''m not sure yet. The manager said that perhaps I would be chosen for the project and encouraged me to join. But my senior invited me to join her on another project first. That project is smaller but not bad either, so I''m conflicted now."
"I only know a little about your work, but I think thetter sounds good. Isn''t that colleague the one you told me aboutst time? The one who helped you when you were still a newbie?"
"En. She is a cool senior. To be honest, I''m interested in joining because of her. Do you think I should just ept her offer?"
"Why not? You''ll have an easier time at work when surrounded by people you can trust."
Li Chunhua felt some truth in Li Caiyi''s words and nodded. "Alright! Then I will tell my senior I will take her up on her offer!"
Li Caiyi only smiled faintly. She knew the residential area project would be doomed, so Li Chunhua would be better off taking thetter one.
"But still, I think the vitamin you gave me is working! I don''t get headaches as often or get tired easily anymore."
After Li Chunhua woke up from her extended unconscious state four years ago, Li Caiyi wasted no time and gave her the medicine Chu Kong developed. The effect wasn''t instantaneous, but Li Chunhua''s episode had significantly lessened.
Aside from that, Li Chunhua also diligently went to her psychologist for treatment. And it seemed to work because her mental state was stable in the past 4 years.<novelnext> </novelnext>
Even though she would copse again if she overworked too much, her condition wasn''t as fragile as it used to be.
? Li Caiyi unconsciously held her arm, which still had the mark of blood transfusion under the sleeve, and felt that she couldn''t be more grateful than that.
"Thank goodness. You have to take them regrly, alright?"
"Yes! I feel like I''m getting stronger day by day. It makes me think that the past me is so silly for being stubborn for nothing. I should have listened to you earlier."
"All that matters is you are actively taking care of yourself." Li Caiyi stroked her head. "You still have a long life ahead of you, so never forget this blissful feeling, alright?"
"Haha, what''s wrong with you today? You know, you talked like an olddy sometimes, Xiaoyi."
Li Caiyi couldn''t tell her that she was much older than her inwardly, so she only gave her a mysterious smile. "Let''s stop talking and walk more walking. The others must have waited for us already."
"That''s why I told you we should have hailed a taxi. Why do we have to walk on such a cold afternoon?" Li Chunhua whined as she tightened her trenchcoat.
"I didn''t expect the weather to be this cold. This year''s autumn is colder thanst year."
"Yeah, the wind is strong too. Do you think there will be a storm tonight?"
"Hopefully not, or we have to ask Ya Ya to let us stay in her house."

When the twins stepped into the Yueguang Noodle House, they sighed, feeling the warmth of the room slowly melting their stiffened hands.
Li Caiyi walked up to one of the waiters to say something, and the waiter kindly led them upstairs, where reserved rooms were lined up. The twins followed him and entered the room he was pointed at.
They didn''t expect that they would be weed by loud confetti.
POP!
"Congrattions!"
Zhou Ya, Feng Nian, and Chen Run stood side by side with wide grins on their flushed faces. It seemed they had started the party without waiting for them.
"Come on, you guys startled us!" Li Chunhua scolded them, but Chen Run only waved her hand casually.
"Now, now, don''t be so angry. Today is a happy day for us!"
Li Caiyi was intrigued because Chen Run seemed more hyper than usual. She nced at Zhou Ya and asked, "Did something happen today? Howe I haven''t heard about it?"
Zhou Yaughed in amusement. "It''s actually good news about Lan Lan. She said she had kept it from us so she could make an announcement today. You will be surprised by the news!"
"Guys, I know you are excited, but how about letting the two of them sit first?"
Under Feng Nian''s reminder, everyone calmed down and returned to their seats. Li Caiyi sat beside Zhou Ya, while Li Chunhua chose to sit beside Chen Run across from them.
"So, what is this all about?"
Everyone looked at Chen Run expectantly. The said person couldn''t stop grinning and finally dered proudly.
"Praise me. After a year of ving around under that sadistic Director, I finally got promoted to assistant Director today!"
