Chapter 55 - 52: To The Downfall-1

When she went back to her home, Xiao Yun expected anger and disappointment from her family, however, the only things she saw from their eyes were worry and pity for the end of her marriage.

Now, she had nothing to other than helping her mother with some house management. " House management " but actually, she did nothing other than sweeping the dust in her room, after all, the servant in her house was afraid of letting someone from the family help them with their task, especially, the spoiled young lady of the house.

But, if she doesn't move her body now, she will keep on lamenting the foolish mistake that she made, like what she did right now.

Her thoughts were filled with ' what ifs ', but deep in her heart, she understood that even though she blames Qu Mei Xing and Hong Yan Xun for what happened to her, in the end, she was the one who ended own marriage.

While thinking of how she could distract herself, someone knocks on her door.

" Sister, you're here? " The other person behind the door was no other than her brother, Yu Xing Fu. His face looks hesitant he wants to comfort her, since after Xiao Yun's divorce, she looks dispirited and sometimes dazes into nothing for hours.

The sibling relationship between the two is not that close, now, what can he say to comfort his sister? He was afraid of making her sister feel more sullen by his careless remark.

However, for the past two weeks, she didn't get any better, in fact, her dazing worsen each day as she left Li Lei's house.

Then one day as if angels heard his praying, one of his friends invited him to Korea in a good time. Taking the chances Xing Fu thought ' Maybe she could take a have a change of pace outside China. ' and prepared flight ticket for her.

She opened the door and found her brother who seems to be fidgeting with something behind his back.

Xiao Yun holds the back of her neck, " Ge Ge? What's wrong? " She also never speak to Xing Fu like a normal sibling and as if that was their first conversation in years, they felt very awkward with each other.

"..." Silence came after her question, Xing Fu seems to be trying to say something, so Xiao Yun also stays quiet to hear him. However, maybe because he couldn't say anything or was scared of saying something careless, he immediately gives the flight ticket to her.

She took the ticket and her expression beamed, " Flight ticket to Korea? "

Xing Fu rubbed his nose shyly, " Mn, this day you seem to be very gloomy after the div-...I mean after 'that'. Anyway, let's go there, my friend invited me to a party in one of the famous hotels in Korea." He almost forgot his words and slap his mouth slowly as he mentions ' divorce'.

Xiao Yun sense her shy brother trying to be mindful of his words. In fact, almost everyone seems to be trying not to mention her divorce or Li Lei. Her parents and brother don't blame Li Lei and Xiao Yun for the divorce, because to them, it was something that they've chosen.

The glasses-like heart of her felt touch by their kindness and the tears that she'd been trying to hold back slowly drips.

Between her cry, a word seeped out of her sob " Mn...T-thank you. " Not knowing what to do and how to comfort his younger sister, Xing Fu awkwardly curl his arm and hug her.

" Umm..." Hundreds of words he studied last night to talk with Xiao Yun now seemed to be useless. Getting dizzy from thinking too deeply, Xing Fu could only pet Xiao Yun's head carefully. while adjusting the force on his palm, he comforts her " It's alright, It's alright, don't cry anymore...It's alright. "

The warmness on top of her head that caresses her reflects how worried Xing Fu was. Like a child, her cry worsen, but this time her tears were not only sadness.

Not far from the scene, tears swell up on her parent's eyes who took a peek behind the wall.
