Su Xiaoli descended the stairs with complicated emotions.
Downstairs in the dining room, Aunt Feng was busy carrying the prepared meals to the table.
The man with a tall figure and an aloof temperament was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, holding a newspaper, and seemed to be enjoying it immensely.
Looking at the man's elegant and distant demeanor, Su Xiaoli felt even more conflicted.
This kind of man would never have been within reach for a country girl like her, had he not turned into a vegetative state before.
But if he were truly broken by her doing, and could never be humane again...
Her guilt would be immense.
The girl's apologetic gaze caused the man who was reading the newspaper to slightly furrow his brows.
He turned his head, looking with some confusion at the girl standing awkwardly at the top of the stairs, "Standing there, are you being punished?"
Only then did Su Xiaoli snap back to reality.
