Han Dongchen readily agreed, exhibiting a serious demeanor while discussing the details. However, he didn't understand how Shanshan Ruan felt when she spoke those words. The bitterness of seeing the one she loved provide such meticulous care for another woman was indescribable.
Han Dongchen was obedient, tending to Su Xiaowan throughout the night by changing her towel repeatedly, until her fever finally subsided. Only then did he find a spot next to Su Xiaowan to sleep.
When Su Xiaowan opened her eyes the next day, she saw Han Dongchen sleeping beside her.
His face was calm yet somewhat haggard. His closed eyes hid beneath trembling lashes, while his prominent nose and sensual lips were prominent.
From Su Xiaowan's angle, she could only see one side of his face, and even just this profile was incredibly captivating.
However, this captivating man, time and again, infringed on her personal freedom, bringing her immense pain.
