Across Time And Space 243 You Will Always Be My Sister

Jiang Mingyue was drying her hair with a towel when she saw her phone brightened up. She went to the table and grabbed her phone. Slowly, her lips curved into a smile as she read the text message from Yang Yun, asking her whether she was alright.

Just as she was about to press the call b.u.t.ton, someone knocked on her door. Mingyue sent a quick reply to Yang Yun and opened the door. "Sister!" her eyes brightened when she found her sister behind the door. "Why are you not sleeping yet?"

"I can't sleep," Lin Tian Yu peeked inside Mingyue's room and said, "Can I come in?"

"Of course. Come in." Mingyue pulled the door wider to let her sister into her room.

Lin Tian Yu sat on the bed. Once she saw that Mingyue's hair was still wet, she stood up to grab a hairdryer and beckoned to her sister to come closer. "Let me help you to dry your hair before you get another fever."

Mingyue laughed. She sat down obediently and let her sister help her dry her hair. Mingyue glanced at her sister and sensed that there was something that was troubling her sister.

In the end, Mingyue chose to stay quiet and let her sister's mind wander as she dried her hair. Since Lin Tian Yu had come over to look for her, Mingyue was sure that her sister would spill what was on her mind sooner or later.

For a few minutes, only the sound from the hair drier could be heard. Because Mingyue's hair was quite long, it took a long time before her hair was dried.

When Lin Tian Yu finished, she put the hair drier aside and helped Mingyue to braid her hair in a simple knot. Even then, Mingyue did not say anything.

"Mingyue," Lin Tian Yu spoke after a while. She moved to sit next to her sister. Their gaze met, and Lin Tian Yu hesitated for a few seconds. "Tell me. You… Did you get your memories back? Did you remember your life before you met us?"

Jiang Mingyue lowered her gaze. She could guess that Xue Yi Ming knew something about both hers and Yang Yun's situation. However, she did not know how much did Xue Yi Ming knew and who else knows of it.

After all, she did not get much time to catch up with Yang Yun. When she woke up and reunited with Yang Yun, she only managed to ask him about her family and the Princess.

Mingyue tilted up her head and saw that her sister was waiting for her answer anxiously. "Yes. I remembered."

Lin Tian Yu nodded slowly. As she looked at the way Mingyue and Yang Yun interacted in the hospital, Lin Tian Yu had guessed that her sister might have gotten her memories back.

"You," Lin Tian Yu bit her lips. She was unsure of how she should continue the conversation. The thing that Yang Yun and Xue Yi Ming had told her sounds bizarre. However, there was no way that she was going to leave without getting the answer.

"Yang Yun said that you and he are married." Lin Tian Yu was momentarily speechless when she saw how her sister blushed. Lin Tian Yu immediately knew what the answer was.

"Yang Yun told you?"

Lin Tian Yu watched her sister in disbelief and gasped when Mingyue replied to her with a nod.

That's not right. How old was Mingyue when Xue Yi Ming brought her to the Lin's residence? Mingyue and her, they were at least six or seven years apart. However, Mingyue always acted and behaved as if she was a lot more matured than Lin Tian Yu. But still… how can she be married? Back then, Mingyue was still a child. What kind of place was they both from?

"Sister, how much did you know? What did Yang Yun tell you?"

Lin Tian Yu took a few deep breaths to calm down. "He said that the two of you were from a different world. You came to this world accidentally after you dug out some herbs. Was that true as well?"

Mingyue nodded again. Her gaze softened as she looked up at her sister. "So you knew about that too. I know that it might sound strange, but it was true. Yang Yun and I... We are not from this world. The place where we came from, it was a bit similar to those in a period drama that mom loved to watch."

Lin Tian Yu broke their eye contact and continued to listen to Mingyue speaking of her world. "Does it mean that someday, you will return to your world?" she asked after a while.

"If there were a chance for me to return, of course, I would choose to return," Mingyue said.

"You're not going to stay here?"

Mingyue's gaze softened as she heard the question. "Sister, in that world, I still have my family and friends. I'm sure that they were all worried about me when I went missing. I wanted to return. Although I have experienced a lot of things in this world, I do not belong here. Therefore, I need to return."

Lin Tian Yu continued to watch Mingyue with a complicated gaze. She wanted to coax her sister to stay in this world. In this world, Mingyue still has her family and friends.

But in the end, Lin Tian Yu could not speak what was in her mind. She knew that if she tried to stop Mingyue from returning, then that would be very selfish.

Lin Tian Yu snapped out of her trance as Mingyue pulling her into a hug.

"Lin Tian Yu… No matter where we are, no matter how far we were apart, you will always be my sister." Mingyue said.

Lin Tian Yu felt her eyes stung. She immediately bit on her lips to stop herself from crying. She did not want to let her sister feel bad. "Then, how are you going to return? How much longer will you stay here? And our parents, how are you going to explain these things to them?"
