Ru never learned to say shallow words. She would always say what she felt, not caring about the feelings of the other person.
"Thank you for choosing to stay," Xiao Zhi Ren said sincerely. The gentleness in his voice was almost scary for Ru. She wasn't used to people being this gentle with her.
"Actually, I should thank you for not asking about anything. I know there is a lot going on in that head of yours. But..." she gave tired sigh as she went around the kitchen counter and continued, "I really can't answer. There might be some question which even I don't know how to answer."
Xiao Zhi Ren took a seat at the high kitchen stool facing the kitchen counter and her who was standing on the other side. "I can understand and even if I can't I'll try to do so. That's the least I can do."
