The cold night wind blew outside the window.
Inside the room, candlelight flickered.
Nian Ruxue stared blankly at Nian Jincheng, watery light filling her eyes. "Second Brother, what are you talking about?"
Nian Jincheng's face was serious. "You insisted on finding Aling earlier, and now that I want to send you to her, you're unwilling. I don't understand."
"Second Brother, did someone say something to you?" Nian Ruxue's voice choked, "I thought I would never see him again in this life, and suddenly you said there was news of him. I wasn't mentally prepared. I couldn't believe it, and I didn't want to leave home. So... Second Brother, have you really found him? Or did you believe some rumors and are testing me?"
Nian Jincheng was silent, looking at Nian Ruxue's injured expression as tears fell like broken beads from her eyes. His heart clenched in pain.
