After a tiring journey, it was already the third night when we arrived in Jiangcheng.
Huo Shen had already called Auntie Ya ahead of time, so the house was clean and tidy.
He carried our luggage and pushed open the door to the second floor room, where all the furniture was brand new.
"You'll stay here, the room is more spacious and comfortable."
Lin Anning shook her head, pulling at his hand.
"I'll stay in the attic, it has your scent. When you're not by my side, smelling your scent makes me miss you less."
Her eyes were red from the crying she had been doing these past two days.
With her voice both tender and soft, it made Huo Shen's heart melt into a puddle.
He sighed, took Lin Anning's hand, and led her up to the attic.
"If I had known it was this hard to part, I should have transferred back to Jiangcheng."
Lin Anning knew that was just Huo Shen's way of speaking.
Though he was heartbroken for her, he also didn't shirk the responsibilities and burdens on his shoulders.
