Lin Kong thought for a moment before coldly replying, “You’re pregnant and can’t see. It’s inconvenient for you to walk further, so you might as well go live at the Lin Clan. You can only leave after giving birth.”

“No,” Xiao Se Yan shook her head and refused, “No one will feel comfortable living there.”

“You are Sai Jin’s elder sister. Although you are not worthy of pity, the child is innocent after all. Are you going to let him suffer everywhere outside with you?” Lin Kong asked. Hearing this, Xiao Se Yan looked worried.

“You’re pregnant, blind, and carrying a lot of money. I think you’ll be robbed the moment you get to the train station,” Lin Kong said coldly.

Xiao Se Yan pondered for a moment, then nodded and said lightly, “I wish I could stay in a room by myself, away from you all. It’s best if we don’t see each other at all.”

“Then you’ll have to go to the gardener’s room in the back garden,” Lin Kong ridiculed.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Se Yan nodded seriously, “That’s good. There aren’t many people there and it’s empty. Can you give me some extra cups?”

Lin Kong could not stand her reckless attitude.

It was as if he were deliberately suppressing his emotions, making himself a person who had no feelings for anything.

No love, no hate.

They were polite strangers.

However, it was undeniable that this method was the best.

Lin Kong scratched his head in annoyance. “Pack your things. I’ll take you back.”

“Boss Lin, why don’t you call another car to send me off?” Xiao Se Yan shook her head. “I don’t want Xiao Se Jin to see us leave together.”

“Just ask someone to take me to the gardener’s room. If I need anything, I’ll tell you through others. Just ask the servants to bring me things. We’d better not meet again.”

“Hmph!” Lin Kong coldly snorted. “You’ve thought this through quite well.”

He stood up and walked to the door. Remembering that she could no longer see him, he turned around and glanced at her again.

The undeniable fact was that she did not speak and just sat there quietly. Her beauty was enough to shock people.

But unfortunately, he had a devilish heart.

Lin Kong sighed and left.

After the man’s presence completely disappeared, Xiao Se Yan let her guard down and became extremely tired.

She caressed her stomach with a gentle expression on her face. “Baby, Mommy was very brave just now…”

“You have to be strong so Mommy can protect you…”

Ever since she returned to the Lin Clan, she had not seen Lin Kong or Xiao Se Jin again, just as she wished.

Most of the time, she was alone, and occasionally, a servant would bring her supplies.

She became less and less talkative and often sat in silence all day.

She couldn’t see, and there was nothing to do but recognize things by touch to pass the time.

Once, while tidying up the gardener’s room, she found a set of drawing tools.

She was pleasantly surprised. She suddenly recalled that in university, she was actually the president of the Western Painting Society. Back then, she loved to draw in the quiet woods…

Thinking of Lin Kong, bitterness welled up in her heart.

She patted the dust off the painting set, thinking that the portrait she had once given Lin Kong must have been lost by Xiao Se Jin…

When she picked up the brush again, she was really nervous.

After all, she was blind. Not to mention drawing well, it was already impressive just to draw on paper.

Although she couldn’t see color, she could still sketch!

She fumbled with her pencil, spread the paper out flat on the lawn, and began to draw as best as she could imagine.

The more she painted, the happier she became. She was immersed in her own world, as if she had finally found the happiness of her past.

She didn’t notice that a tall man was watching her with interest, his eyes filled with admiration.

The drawing was finally done…

Xiao Se Yan let out a long breath and gently wiped the sweat off her nose.

Just as she was about to roll up the painting, she heard a man speaking. It was in awkward Mandarin.

“Hello, I’m James. I really like that painting you just drew!”

Xiao Se Yan was startled at first, but soon realized that Lin Kong’s guests must have come over to watch the show, curious to see her draw.

Afraid of running into Lin Kong or Xiao Se Jin, she hurriedly thanked him and fumbled her way out.

James was very disappointed when he saw her running away. He gave her a wistful look and whispered, “We will meet again…”
