Her eyes were clear, showing no signs of weariness, and it seemed that she had been awake for quite a while.
So, did she overhear the conversation between him and Lu Yebai earlier?
For a moment, Lu Qingchuan felt a bit lost.
He hesitated, then called out, "Xixi..."
Meng Xi'er turned her head to look at him, her voice soft. "I'm fine."
Lu Qingchuan touched her face, but he didn't know what to say. He could take her to the hospital to treat physical injuries, but how could he heal the wounds in her heart?
For a reason he couldn't place, he started to feel a bit defeated. He wished so much to make Meng Xi'er happy.
But he still couldn't do it.
He was not the one who could make her happy.
"Where do you want to go?" He was holding the steering wheel. "I'm free today, anywhere you want, I can take you there."
"..." Meng Xi'er was silent for a moment. "Take me home," she said, her eyelashes trembling slightly. "I haven't been back for years, I want to go see."
