It was still dark when Huo Shen parked the jeep outside the Huo Family residence.
He took the letter lying beside him and looked at it over and over again.
That night, he had returned from Hongqigou and took a detour to Jiangcheng.
Only then did he learn that Lin Anning had left him a letter before she departed.
"You clearly said you would wait for me, but you immediately found someone else, you little liar."
Huo Shen's face was filled with irritation as he crumpled the letter and thought about throwing it away.
Yet he couldn't bear to do it and carefully smoothed it out again, placing it in his inner pocket.
Huo Yang came out of the house and saw Huo Shen sitting in the car, his eyes looking darkly into the distance.
"You little rascal, you ran off without a word that day. Did you find Anning?"
Huo Yang cursed as he walked up and glanced into the back seat of the car.
"Where is Anning? You didn't bring her back with you?"
