Looking closely, in the photo frame, the girl sits on a swing, her smile radiant. Gazing at the girl's innocent face, he becomes lost in thought. Somehow, the previous speculation surfaces again.
Following his gaze, noticing his entranced look at the photo, a hint of emotion flashes in his eyes, but he quickly regains composure. He coughs lightly twice, pulling Beichen Rui's attention back, and says half-jokingly, half-seriously, "That's my sister, could it be you fancy her?"
Upon hearing this, Beichen Rui chuckles softly and responds, "I just think she was quite adorable when she was young."
"Indeed," seeming to recall something sad from the past, he lowers his gaze for a moment, and after a long silence, he continues, "If she were still here, she'd probably be about the same age as your wife. It's just a pity..."
Listening to his words, Beichen Rui lightly purses his lips without responding, seeming to have some understanding of why he was invited to the Ling Family Mansion.
