She had angered him countless times before, he would get mad, mock her, and turn icy, but it had never been like this, calm and unfamiliar.
Ning Xia felt a sense of unease creep up from the depths of her heart, as if something was quietly slipping away, yet she was unable to grasp it.
She tried hard to steady her mind, not allowing herself to indulge in wild thoughts.
Swallowing nervously, she replied in a low voice, "No… I just wanted to see how your wound is doing. Is it serious?"

That indifference was like an invisible arrow, piercing harshly into Ning Xia's heart.
