The air around the two had frozen for a moment.
"You—"
"You—"
Both spoke at once.
Wen Xian immediately looked up at him, then quickly looked down again.
Her lips lightly pressed together.
Lu Xiao also paused, then dropped a few words, "You go first."
At those words, Wen Xian almost laughed out of exasperation. She took a deep breath, "I have nothing to say."
She knew he had his reasons, that he was worried about her.
Fearful she might get into trouble, that's why he had made that choice.
But was that decision really the right one? Why didn't he ask what she thought?
Although she felt sorry for him, she knew some things couldn't be compromised.
Having said that, she turned to leave.
But her arm was suddenly grabbed.
Wen Xian startled.
Her gaze slowly fell to his hand.
Lu Xiao seemed as if he had been electrified, quickly withdrawing his hand, which then seemed awkwardly out of place.
Seeing this pained her heart, almost unable to hold back.
It hurt so much.
