There Are Never What If’s (17)

Ever since that day, Rong Mo did not catch sight of Shang Mo anymore.1

It was as though he had gone abroad. That was for the better as well. Yet, for some reason, she found herself recalling the way he had looked at her that day, the light that was piercing through that darkness, so warm and scorching.

She froze up for a long time, not knowing why she was acting as such.

The current her was living with a chaotic memory where her past was mixed with her present. What was she doing thinking about Shang Mo instead of clearing this mess in her mind?

Today was her final scene as the 2nd male lead in the set. The final outdoor shoot would only be taken after the female lead was done with her scenes.

Other than Rong Mo, there were a couple of actors finishing their roles on this day as well. Because of that, the director ended the shoot earlier than usual to treat everyone to a meal.

To Rong Mo's surprise, Qian Xun brought Shi Guang along.

Facing that longing gaze of Shi Guang, Rong Mo shifted her eyes away. She had already made it clear to the other that she was not her sister. So, why was that woman still obstinately coming to her for an answer as though she was a screw loose?

Right now, Rong Mo did not know why she could not recall anything. What if she were to lead danger to Shi Guang just through her acceptance of the latter?

Twisting her head away coldly, Rong Mo treated Shi Guang just like a stranger. No matter how Shi Guang glanced at her during the meal, she chose to ignore her.

After the meal, she headed to the restroom. Right when she came out, she caught sight of Shi Guang on the path back.

"Sist… Rong Mo." Shi Guang called out softly.

"I thought that I have already made it clear the previous time around, Miss Shi… Or rather, Mrs. Lu, please don't disturb me!" Rong Mo replied coldly.

"I merely wish to see you…" Shi Guang bit on her lips.

Rong Mo frowned, looking at her with an icy gaze that concealed the sadness inside her.

"Have you ever put yourself in my shoes? If I were the one bugging you right now telling you that you resemble my brother, how would you feel? After all, I'm a public figure. Even if I'm not really popular right now because I've just started out, what about in the future? What if others were to catch evidence of you bugging me as such as well? Things would be fine if they were to just interpret it as you mistaking me as your sister. But, what if they were to spread rumors that I was a third party who was trying to step into your marriage? Wouldn't that be akin to destroying me?"

Shi Guang's face turned pale immediately.

Right now, she had not expected any form of acknowledgment or the likes from Rong Mo—she merely wanted to come see her.

But, Rong Mo was right as well. If they were caught, things might play out as how the other had described.

An apologetic feeling rose in Shi Guang's heart. "S-Sorry."

"Forget it! Just keep your distance from me in the future." Rong Mo turned around and left right after saying it.

Looking at that back view, the only sensation Shi Guang felt was a throbbing pain. At least, it wasn't as painful as the previous incident.

She thought about how there was no way Rong Mo wouldn't acknowledge her if she were truly her sister. And if she had amnesia, Shi Guang could only wait till she had recovered her memories.

Turning around, she caught sight of Qian Xun looking at her calmly. As she walked over, the latte smiled and said nothing at all.

Shi Guang drove over personally today. Since Qian Xun had no chauffeur and Shi Guang would have to pass by her place on the way back, the latter hopped onto her car.
