### Chapter 37 - How should the grudges of the past end today?

"Little Silent!" A gentle female voice came from the other side. The familiar and intimate address made Ji Zi's eyes turn red for a moment as he choked with sobs and shouted, "Sister Shaoying."

The person who called her was Li Shaoze's elder sister, the only person who had stood by her and Li Shaoze's side. Many times when she was with Li Shaoze, she had helped to cover for him, and she had always affectionately called her Little Silent, saying that she was the youngest wife of the Li Family, and her younger brother's darling.

A year ago, after leaving the North, she was the only one who came to see her off. Holding her in his arms, he cried as he said to her, "Little Silent, it's our Li Family that has let you down. It's my younger brother that has." Ji Zimo had only contacted her after she had arrived here, she had secretly come to visit her, had flown from the north to the overseas and then changed planes to come visit her in this southern city. Ji Zimo was undoubtedly grateful to this woman, but after she had settled down in the south, they rarely contacted each other, she was afraid that she would think of that person, she, probably was also afraid that she would see her thinking of her younger brother, but why did she suddenly call today?

Ji Ziming sniffed, "Sister Shaoying, what's the matter?" The habitual way of asking was less intimate and more unfamiliar.

"Little Jingjing, why are you being so courteous with sis?" Naturally, the other side could also tell that she was unfamiliar with this place! Ye Zichen muttered in annoyance.

"Nope." Ji Zimo subconsciously shook his head. He remembered it was a phone call. She couldn't see it, so he said it again. After that, if he wanted to say something, he couldn't say it.

"Little Jingjing, you've changed." A faint voice came from the other side.

"Elder sister Shaoying, everyone's changing!" I know why she said she had changed, because she had been a chattering little sparrow for years, and now, most of the time, she was silent.

"Sigh." The other side sighed heavily and said, "Little Jingjing, there's something that I don't know whether or not I should tell you!"

Ji Zimo's heart inexplicably skipped a beat.

"What's wrong? Elder Sister Shaoying? "

"Silently, you have to promise me first that you won't get too excited." On the other side, Li Shaoying's voice was a bit serious.

Ji Zi smiled, deliberately wanting to ease the atmosphere. "Sister Shaoying, this depends on what you're talking about. Otherwise, I won't be able to guarantee it!"

"Yes!" The other party replied, "Yesterday, I thought about whether I should tell you or not. I didn't want to tell you, but I was afraid that you would blame me for it. I was worried even if I told you!"

"Sister Shaoying, didn't you call me just to tell me?"

"Little Jingjing, you're really smart." Li Shaoying praised Ji Zimo, "Then guess what I'm going to say?"

"Is there anything about him? Is that so? " Ji Zimo asked softly. He hadn't even mentioned his name, yet he was already feeling pain in his chest. It was as if needles were pricking him.

Li Shaoying paused for a long time before continuing, "Yes, yes!" She was probably afraid that she wouldn't be able to continue after a while, so she quickly continued, "Little Jingjing, my heartless little brother is back!"

It was so painful. Although he had prepared himself for the pain, the moment he was confirmed, it was even more painful than he had imagined. It was so painful that tears almost flowed out of his eyes without warning!

"Little Jingjing, what's wrong?" On the other side, Li Shaoying had not heard Ji Zi's voice for a long time, so she called out to him in a hurry.

"It's fine, it's fine. Sister Shaoying, I'm fine!" Ji Zimo wiped the tears off his face and took a deep breath.

"You're crying?" Her nasal tone was too thick, and she tried her best to hide it. She anxiously replied, "Little Jun, I'm sorry. Big Sis shouldn't have told you about this. I'm sorry!"

"Elder sister Shaoying, I'm really alright!" Ji Zimo forced himself to smile. "I have to thank you!" Let me know about him. Let me know he's back.

"Little Jingjing, I'm sorry!" Although Ji Zi said this, Li Shaoying still blamed herself, and kept saying that she was sorry.

"Elder sister Shaoying, when did he return?" She didn't ask him, she told herself a hundred times, a thousand times, not to ask, she and he should have long since been people from two different worlds, she and he were no longer connected, she had a hundred reasons, a thousand reasons to force herself not to ask, there were a hundred and one reasons, a thousand reasons to make her ask, she told herself, just wanted to know when he came back, just wanted to know, just wanted to know when the two of them would start breathing the same country, even if it was the south end, even if it was the north end of their lives, the south end.

"Yesterday."

"Yesterday?"

"En, he arrived in the capital yesterday afternoon, and then …" Li Shaoyin paused here.

"Elder sister Shaoying?"

"Then, Little Silent, he's in the south!" Li Shaoying said this very slowly!

"He went south?" Ji Zimo's hands were shaking so much that he almost couldn't hold his phone.

"Yes, I went home yesterday, and then I headed south. I found out that you weren't in the capital, and that you were in the south!"

What did that mean? Ji Ziming didn't dare to think too deeply about it. She remained silent.

On the other side, Li Shaoying was afraid that she would be angered, so she hurriedly said, "Little Silent, I'm not the one who told him about you going to the south. I promise."

"Yes, I know." It was not a secret that she had come from the north to the south. Almost everyone in their circle knew that she had been expelled from the capital.

"However, he doesn't know which city you are in. He is probably just blindly searching around."

"Yes!" Ji Zimo answered casually.

"Little Jingjing, do you still have feelings for him? Do you want to come back and see him? "

"Sister Shaoying, it's all over!" After saying so, Ji Zimo's tears flowed down her face. She covered her mouth with one hand and gripped her phone with the other.

"But silence! "He's looking for you now that he's back. He must still have some feelings for you, you guys!"

"Elder sister Shaoying." Ji Zimo shouted excitedly, "He and I can't be together. No, elder sister Shaoying, he and I have always been impossible, so stop talking about us!"

"Quiet."

"Sister Shaoying, my roommates are calling me to go eat. I won't talk to you for now. We'll talk again when we're free!" Then, without waiting for a reply, Ji Zimo hung up the phone.

Who would call her to dinner?

The entire room was empty except for her.

Loneliness and loneliness. Before the age of twenty, she had never understood that there was never a lack of people at her side. Especially not Li Shaoze, as long as he was by her side. In fact, she had left her hometown and came to this southern city by herself. This place was not that much different from the capital, and the tall buildings were filled with crowds of people coming and going, day and night, while the streets were filled with endless streams of people coming and going, and at night, it seemed as if everything in this city was the same. It was just that she didn't have any family, friends, or even a friend, and everything in this city was foreign to her.

She spent a year getting used to this kind of life, lonely and lonely. She also thought that her life would continue like this and she would end up lonely and old in a southern city without a familiar person.
