After Liu Chen left, Shen Xingyao was also called back to work by Shen Xingye. Before he left, he seemed very melancholic.
"He really has been put through hardships these days, and hasn't been able to make time for you properly,"
Liu Zhixue said laughingly to Xiu Qingyue. She had told Shen Xingye there was no need to trouble himself like this, but he wouldn't listen.
"Not at all, it's better if he's a bit busy." It saves him from overthinking all the time.
Xiu Qingyue smirked, whenever Shen Xingyao had free time, he would pester her, talking about inconceivable things—sometimes, she didn't even know how to respond to him.
"What's up, you find him too clingy?" Shen Xinglan asked Xiu Qingyue. Her second brother had finally found a romantic interest, of course he was going to be a bit clingy, afraid he might lose her.
"Isn't Mr. Huo also clingy?" Xiu Qingyue retorted. She had heard all the buzz about it in Yun City.
