Qin Ruan lost control.
Ling Xiaoxuan's words laid bare the crippling fear and worry Qin Ruan had been holding within.
The feelings of panic bubbled within her, each wave causing her heart to ache.
Ling Xiaoxuan always conducted herself with grace and tact, exercising courtesy in every action.
But her words today were extreme, each one piercing straight into vulnerable spots.
If these words had come from anyone else, Qin Ruan's emotions might not have been so stirred.
Unfortunately, they were from Ling Xiaoxuan, a friend she had considered trustworthy and reliable.
The apprehension surged wildly within her, triggering an urgency to see Grandpa Huo.

After Qin Ruan left, Ling Xiaoxuan slouched on the couch, motionless and silent.
Lei Ning poured a glass of water and handed it to her, "You could have used subtler terms. Why incite her?"
Qin Ruan had lost control. Why couldn't Lei Ning see it?
As a psychologist, he should be able to read her expression and behavior.
