Chapter 404: Mastermind

Yu Mei leaned back on the wall as she sobbed while speaking, ''You know... The first time when I saw you, you appeared out of thin air and later, even though I acted indifferent about it, I was intimidated by your presence. In my heart, I always treated you as an enemy until I realized the kind of person you are. It took me months to know the real you, little by little, I got to know the Mia who has her vulnerable sides, who has soft corner for me and Zixuan even though she pretended like she didn't care...'' She whispered softly while gently stroking Mia's back, hoping that her voice reached the woman.

''Mia... Your presence...it is indeed like that of an elder sister, one I can rely on with my eyes closed. Even though I don't say it out most of the time, I have always seen you as an elder sister like you always wanted to be seen as. You are someone I can go to without a second thought...'' Yu Mei paused as her eyes welled up with tears.
