Complex Feelings

"Are you really... Aunt Zhi?" a trembling voice was heard in the room.

Tang Zhi smiled warmly, "Of course I am, little Shuiruo. It's a miracle from heaven that someone sent a savior and healed me."

Mu Shuiruo was currently at the Tang residence.

Mu Shuiruo couldn't believe her eyes when she saw the current Tang Zhi. She knew about her previous state and knew that she was very ill, but now, when Tang Wanying told her that her mother had been cured, she was happy and could not believe that there was such a radical change.

Tang Wanying was at Mu Shuiruo's side, she was also somewhat incredulous that her mother would be able to continue living. She was very happy.

"That's great, Aunt Zhi." Mu Shuiruo smiled brightly as she confirmed that this was true.

Drinking the medicinal liquid contained in the porcelain flask, Tang Zhi still remembered that great young man of mystery. She hoped she would see him again.

"Mom, we'll let you rest, you still have to recover well." Tang Wanying said goodbye to her mother and went to her room with Mu Shuiruo.

Tang Wanying's bedroom.

"Sister Wanying, it's great that Aunt Zhi has completely recovered." Mu Shuiruo congratulated Tang Wanying.

"It's all thanks to him..." Tang Wanying began to remember Ling Tian's image. Her heart was a mess every time she thought of him.

Did she really have feelings for him?

No, no, no. They had only known each other for a few hours...

It should only be because he helped her mother, just for that...

Coming out of her mental mess, Tang Wanying asked Mu Shuiruo, "Sister, how are you doing with that person you like?"

Mu Shuiruo blushed at Tang Wanying's question. She knew who he meant...

Tang Wanying saw her reaction and knew that she had not made much progress.

"Haih, Sister Shuiruo, if you don't do something, he could be put away and someone else would steal his heart-"

"But sister-" Mu Shuiruo interrupted immediately.

Tang Wanying didn't keep talking when Mu Shuiruo spoke. She knew what Mu Shuiruo meant.

Since childhood, she and Mu Shuiruo have always been together, even before her family died in that attack by demon beasts.

Although they had other sisters like that, but eventually they stopped communicating because of problems with their families...

Friendship between the two girls grew to the point where they were almost inseparable...

When they were kids, both girls had done a lot of things together. Whether it's playing together, bathing together, eating together, even sleeping together, among other things...

Tang Wanying clearly remembered a promise they had made to each other when they were still children.

- - - - -

"Sister, I would like our friendship to last a lifetime.

"Why do you say that, Sister Shuiruo?"

"Because we'll grow up and one day we'll have to separate. Marry the boy we love then... our friendship would continue but we'd have less time to spend together."

"I also want our friendship, our sisterly bonds to last a lifetime...

We have already lost communication with the other three sisters and only two of us remain, so we will treasure this sisterhood."

"Hmmm"

"Hehe, how about we make a promise?"

"What do you mean, sister?"

"What do you think about marrying the same man? Then we'd still be together, and even happier with the man we'd have as our future husband..."

"Are you serious?"

"En!"

"But wouldn't that be strange? Everyone would see us differently..."

"Sister Shuiruo, you don't have to worry about what others say.

One's happiness is different from others, if we worry about what others would say, we'll never be happy..."

"You're right, Sister Wanying!"

"Hehe. The first one to fall in love with us will have to tell the other one, so you or I would know our future husband..."

"Then we'll marry the same boy, so we can still be together as sisters!"

"It's a promise!"

- - - - -

Tang Wanying still clearly remembered the promise made to Mu Shuiruo several years ago. She still wanted to continue her relationship with her sister, so she intended to meet the lucky man who had won Mu Shuiruo's heart, for Mu Shuiruo had fallen in love first, but now, she had met that mysterious man... the image of him kept coming back to her mind many times. Her heart beat vigorously every time she thought of him. He was the first man to keep his temper, the first man to touch her body directly, the first man to bring back the light and hope in her life, the first man to move his heart...

Mu Shuiruo also remembered the promise made to Tang Wanying, so she felt the same way a little bad about forcing Tang Wanying to meet and love someone unknown, but Mu Shuiruo had really fallen in love with that person, she could no longer hide her feelings. She was conflicted on the inside. She knew that Tang Wanying would try to keep her promise and meet that person, but what if she didn't like him? She didn't want to force Tang Wanying into something she didn't want.

Should she choose the person she loves or her sister?

Tang Wanying knew that her feelings were a complete mess. She knew that she would be selfish and a bad person if she did not keep her promise to her sister, but somehow her heart told her that she had to let her true feelings come out. She should forget Ling Tian, which was supposed to be his name that her father said. Most likely she would never see him again, judging by what her father had explained that day. A being so amazing that he had never appeared before, that he was stronger than the Lord of the City, that he could fly through the skies, therefore he should not be from this place. It would not be strange if he had fallen from the heavens...

Yeah, she should forget him. Forget those feelings she has for him. Maybe she didn't enter his sight, his world... she was just someone else in his life...

He helped her mother, so what her feelings for him should be is gratitude and not something else...

Tang Wanying decided. She would bury those feelings for that mysterious young man deep in her heart. Even if she felt bad about not confessing to Mu Shuiruo, she would still be with her sister and try to be happy with the person she chose. She would keep her promise and stay with her sister, she would meet the man her sister had chosen.

"Sister Shuiruo, the man you've chosen must be very lucky. You should confess your feelings to him." Tang Wanying spoke with a smile, trying to hide the trembling voice coming from her mouth.

Mu Shuiruo blushed and remembered the person who was in love: "Sister Wanying, he... he... is like a loving big brother, but I have not yet dared to tell him my feelings... although we have only known each other for several days, I have come to fall in love with him. Since that time he saved me from Ming Fen's attack, my heart races every time I'm with him."

Tang Wanying had already heard how that man had saved her from the bastard Ming Fen, so she thought he was really a good man.

Mu Shuiruo never told Tang Wanying Ling Tian's name since she promised him. Although she felt a little bad about hiding this from her sister, she still fulfilled Ling Tian's request.

"Once mother recovers, I will have to meet him, hehe." Tang Wanying felt a slight pain when trying to bury her feelings.

Tang Wanying approached Mu Shuiruo and said something in her ear. Mu Shuiruo nodded with a blush on her cheeks.

Mu Shuiruo did not know that her sister had fallen in love as well, therefore she nodded at her request.

If she knew that her sister Tang Wanying had fallen in love as well and wanted to sacrifice her feelings for her happiness, she would not allow it and would do the same. Even though they made that promise to stay together, it would not be worth it if one of them lived with regrets.

She didn't want to see her sister Tang Wanying sad either...
