Lin Yan spoke these words without filter, her throat tightening with regret for having uttered such hurtful things.
She hurried to make amends, "I've had a really bad day today. I didn't mean to target you specifically. I just don't understand. I haven't wronged anyone, so why won't life let me be? I've been trying so hard."
Lin Yan found it difficult to breathe and sat up straight, taking a deep breath before she could force herself to continue, "I didn't mean to look down on you. It's just that I feel like such a failure."
A low laugh escaped from Lu Chenyuan's throat. This was the first time he felt so powerless in someone else's eyes.
"You're tired. Get some rest," said Lu Chenyuan, shifting his gaze away, unwilling to look at Lin Yan's dejected face.
Feeling guilty, Lin Yan nodded and went back to the bedroom to lie down on the bed. She took out her cell phone and sent a WeChat message to Lin Xue.
"I saw Mom."
