After Xinan left, Cheng Yi sat in the living room from the afternoon until midnight. It wasn't until the cigarette butts in the ashtray had piled up like a small mountain that he finally made a move.
He paused at the bedroom door before slowly walking in.
Everything in the bedroom remained untouched; Xinan's clothes still hung motionlessly in the closet, and her makeup and jewelry were still laid out on the dresser.
However, when he saw the diamond ring sparkling under the light on top of it, he was notably unsettled.
He grabbed the ring and held it in his palm, examining it closely—it was indeed the one he had given to Xinan.
He hadn't expected that she would leave even this ring behind...
A deep sorrow welled up in Cheng Yi's heart, and his eyes conveyed a sense of loss.
The atmosphere in the room became exceedingly oppressive at that moment, and Cheng Yi could no longer stay there. He staggered out and left the villa.
