Su Liuying forced herself to use the key to open the front door and entered the house. She could no longer control herself and collapsed onto the floor, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.
Tonight, she was truly hurt, deeply hurt! She felt as though her heart had a big hole in it, and someone was relentlessly sprinkling salt over it.
Lin Runjie hadn't seen the lights go on in Su Liuying's room from downstairs and was a bit worried about her, so he took out his phone and called her.
The phone rang for a long time, so long that he began to worry if something had happened to her. Just as he decided to go upstairs to check, Su Liuying finally answered.
"Liuying, are you okay? I didn't see your lights on and thought you hadn't arrived home yet."
Lin Runjie held his phone, looking up in the direction of Su Liuying's room, which remained pitch-black.
"Oh, I'm home now. I'm fine, I just don't want to turn on the lights," she replied slowly, sniffling.
