Bing Shi happily continued to feed her husband the remaining breakfast as they chatted away. But when he leaned in to kiss her cheek, she subtly turned her head away.
Ru Quan couldn't help but feel a twinge of disappointment, wondering why she had avoided his kiss. But as he looked at her, he understood.
Her bandages were gone. Her hair had grown longer and stronger, but the burnt scars crisscrossed her skin like angry red rivers, pulling and stretching her features in uneven lines. Some were thin and jagged, while others were broad and raised, giving her face a textured and uneven appearance.
Maybe it was pity, maybe it was fury, but her sorry state only increased his desire to kiss her more than usual. |"Do you mind your look that much? I can restore it for you."| He inquired after noticing that Bing Shi didn't plan to continue their conversation on her own.
