Wang Jing had finished talking about Huo Shen and then shifted the topic to her own man.
Lin Anning listened with such envy, her longing for Huo Shen grew even stronger.
After returning home, she made a call to Huo Shen's workplace but was told he hadn't returned yet.
Feeling uneasy, she then called the Huo family.
The call was answered by Huo Yang, who was thrilled to hear Lin Anning's voice.
He updated her on Nie Wen's condition, saying she had undergone surgery and that they had found the thing inside her head to be benign.
She was now almost fully recovered and would be brought back home once the weather in Beijing warmed up.
Before he could finish, he choked up and started crying, continually expressing his thanks and apologizing to Lin Anning, saying he shouldn't have doubted her last time.
Lin Anning felt a sourness in her heart listening to him, and it was tough to bear.
