Fallen Chronicles

Chapter 392 392: I Am Really Grateful To Have You

Ding dong

Ding dong ding.

"Coming, coming!"

Miyuki put down the needle and thread in her hand, and at the same time, the emerald green glow gradually faded from the cloak Miyuki had just been mending.

Opening the door, standing outside was a pink-haired woman holding a fruit basket.

"Huh? Lena?"

"I wanted to give myself a day off today, and since I was passing by, I came to visit President. I'm not disturbing you, am I?" Lena looked at the blonde woman in home clothes across from her.

Upon hearing this, the blonde woman immediately puffed out her cheeks in mock anger.

"Lena, I'm upset! You're being too formal. There's no such thing as disturbing or not disturbing. You're always welcome here. And didn't I say, outside the company, just call me Yuki. Come on in quickly!"

The two mature women smiled at each other, then Miyuki took the fruit basket from Lena's hands. While inviting her into the house, she also grumbled a little reproachfully:

"Lena, I appreciate you taking the time to visit and even bringing some fruit. However, I couldn't help but notice that the fruits in these baskets appear to be quite old and not very fresh. It seems like these may be low-quality products intended to be sold at an unfair price."

"Indeed, no fruits are as good as the ones from Sister Yuki's hometown!"

Lena seemed accustomed to this, and it was evident that Miyuki often complained to her about matters related to vegetables and fruits.

After the "small disturbance" at the company had passed, Lena went straight to Miyuki's home as originally planned. She was still a bit concerned about the oddity in Miyuki's voice on the phone last night.

However, from the moment Miyuki opened the door and Lena saw the blonde woman, Lena actually felt much more at ease.

After all, at least on the surface, Miyuki didn't seem to have anything wrong.

In fact...

"Sister Yuki, did you buy some new skincare products recently? How come I feel like even though it's only been a few days since I last saw you, you seems to have become much younger."

Lena couldn't help but cast an envious gaze at Miyuki.

This really wasn't just a polite remark. She truly felt that Miyuki's overall complexion had risen to another level compared to before, with a bit of a glowing feeling.

On the other hand, Miyuki, who received the pink-haired woman's compliment, first went "Huh? Really?" and only then pretended to ponder and said:

"About that, hmm... I have indeed been trying a new skincare product recently. But this product has just been newly launched, and there may still be many aspects that are a bit immature. Let me test the effects a bit more, and then I'll recommend it to you later."

"Then I'll thank Sister in advance."

"No, no, Lena, you're being too formal. I've always considered you a dear younger sister. Naturally, if there are good things, I definitely have to share them~."

Miyuki patted the head of the pink-haired woman in front of her.

Although Lena didn't say anything on the surface, her heart still felt warm.

She was a newcomer, coming to this city like a stranger. Perhaps the only person she could trust here was really just Yuki. She had always regarded Yuki as an older sister too.

However, speaking of family... For some reason, in addition to Miyuki, another face suddenly appeared in Lena's mind. It was a slightly inexperienced young man who had just finished taking a signed photo with her.

Wha… What's wrong with me?

How could I still be unable to forget him!

Lena's abnormality was naturally also noticed by the perceptive Miyuki. As if realizing something, Miyuki then pulled Lena over to the sofa.

"Si… sister?"

"Lena, you must have something on your mind, right?"

"No, I don't..."

The pink-haired woman still tried to evade, stammering. But under Miyuki's gaze, Lena finally chose to surrender. Sighing, she first asked Miyuki in return.

"Sister Yuki, do you think... in this world, there really exists that kind of person where, after just one glance, you feel like they are your destined one, and you want to be good to them, want to talk more with them, and even want to..."

Lena's cheeks were a bit red in the back. Even though she was already a mature woman in her thirties, right now she was still like a shy little girl of seventeen or eighteen, fidgeting bashfully.

"Lena, it is possible, and this phenomenon is actually very common, and we call it... love~"

"But... but I clearly should only be meeting him for the first time, yet I feel like I'm very, very familiar with him, just like reuniting with an old friend after many years apart. There's a very strong sense of closeness. Is this... also love?"

"Of course~, under love, anything is possible. Lena, since you've been fortunate enough to meet him, you have to seize the opportunity. You mustn't miss it. Don't think that you'll be able to meet someone who moves your heart like this again in the future. Very likely... he is your one and only. If you don't grab hold of him, he'll be snatched away by someone else~."

Lena originally didn't think much of it, but after Miyuki said this, especially after hearing the words "snatched away" in Miyuki's later words, Lena's heart clenched.

Subconsciously, she tried imagining if that man were to be with another woman, and immediately, boundless jealousy and unwillingness welled up in her heart. Even if... That woman was Yuki.

No, that's not right!

How can I project Sister Yuki into it!

Lena quickly shook her head inwardly, reproaching herself for this behavior. Yuki treated me so well, viewing me as a dear younger sister. How could I possibly fight over a man with her?

After being enlightened by Miyuki, Lena quickly became dejected again, saying a bit dejectedly: "But Sister Yuki, I... I seem to have already let the opportunity slip by. Forget about knowing his home address, I don't even know his name."

"What about his phone number? Did you two not exchange contact information?" Miyuki asked further, pretending to be a strategist.

Lena sighed again and shook her head: "No, he doesn't have a phone..."

"Is that so..."

The blonde woman on the sofa also sighed, as if also feeling regretful for Lena. But very quickly, Miyuki still perked up in spirit and encouraged her pink-haired good friend beside her.

"It's okay, Lena. I've been resting at home recently, right? Taking this opportunity, I watched several films shot by Sin City Media. One of them was about a female fortune-teller."

"A female fortune-teller?"

Lena was a bit puzzled. She didn't expect Yuki to also watch this type of niche film. And...

Sin City Media?

Why did that sound so familiar?

Without giving Lena more time to ponder, Miyuki continued: "Mm, astrology was originally very complex and profound. But fortunately, the female protagonist in this film explained it in simple terms. I learned a lot of astrological postures... knowledge in great detail, giving me some understanding of metaphysics and also starting to believe in fate."

"So, if he really is Lena's destined person, then I believe, even if you two may have missed each other now, in the near future, very soon, fate will definitely let you meet again!"

Miyuki, having said this, took her pink-haired friend's hand.

And Lena, feeling the warmth of Miyuki's hand on her palm, plus Miyuki's consolation, couldn't help but also nod and sigh again: "Mm, I understand. Thank you, Sister Yuki."

"I am really grateful to have you."
