When Huo Yichen returned, Nan Qiao and Mother Huo pretended that nothing had happened and were talking and laughing.
When Nan Qiao bade farewell, Mother Huo even asked Huo Yichen to send her off.
The two of them strolled along the sidewalk. A breeze blew over and scattered the fallen leaves on the ground. The fragrance of flowers wafted through the air.
"You."
"You…"
Nan Qiao lowered her head and looked at her feet as she walked. Just as she was about to hit a pedestrian, Huo Yichen grabbed her shoulder and pulled her away.
"Let me talk first. Why haven't you been to school recently?" Huo Yichen had only hugged Nan Qiao just now when he saw a layer of rouge on the girl's fair skin.
He quickly let go and pretended that nothing had happened.
"It's nothing. Something just happened. What did the doctor say about your mother?" Nan Qiao stopped in her tracks and tiptoed to ask.
