He had imagined more than ten scenes of them meeting, even him torturing and her accepting meekly but would still love him undyingly and wait for him.
Yet, why was it gone now?
It was still Xia Ruoxin in front of him, but her eyes were so dim and made his body go cold while her attitude made him scared.
Xia Ruoxin lifted the cup of water to her lips and took a sip as she looked down. Her eyelashes cast faint shadows below her eyes. It was delicate and beautiful and, at the same time, unyielding.
She opened her eyes again and stared straight at Chu Lui without blinking. Her heart didn't seem to ache anymore. Was it because she forgot, or she didn't love him anymore? She didn't know, but her heart was indeed as still as water.
"Ruoxin…" Chu Lui called out again.
"What else do you need, Mr. Chu? Please make it quick. I still have to head home."
