The car ride back home was a silent one. Qing Shan had some things going on his mind while Zhi Ruo was thinking about what Grandma Qing said to her. Both of them were immersed in their own world of problems.
Even though both the husband and wife were not in a happy mood or rather busy in their own thoughts the atmosphere was harmonious and did not feel stuffy. Sitting on the back seat of the car, Zhi Ruo was leaning on Qing Shan's shoulder while Qing Shan had his one hand curled around her shoulder and another hand caressing her face.
Snuggling closer to Qing Shan, Zhi Ruo asked, "Are you fine?"
She had already noticed that Qing Shan was not in his best looks since the moment he left Grandma's room. Zhi Ruo wondered what must have happened to make him sad, but refrained from asking in the Qing's mansion.
Kissing on the top of her head gently, Qing Shan said, "I should ask you that. You seem a little distracted."
