"I'm sorry."
Huo Jinyan apologized to her softly, hoping she would calm down. Her eyes would swell after crying for so long.
Unexpectedly, it would have been fine if he did not apologize—but once he did, she cried even harder.
Huo Jinyan really did not know what to do; this little girl was so pitiful that he could only coax and pamper her. However, when she cried, she did not seem to hear anything.
Huo Jinyan reached out to touch her chin. "Don't cry, okay? You're still injured. How about we sit over there? You can scold me as much as you want once you're seated. Here, let me wipe your tears, alright?"
His voice was surprisingly gentle as he asked for Lu Ning's opinion.
However, Lu Ning did not say anything. Huo Jinyan tried to lift her chin gently, but she did not resist.
