Ning Xi gripped her hands into fists, then relaxed it after a while. In the end, she just waved."Be careful on the way back."
"Mmm."

Ning Xi remained stationary for a long time after Lu Tingxiao left. Until she felt a numbness pass throughout her body, she went back into the house.
There was something she had to tell him…

She had to eliminate it from the deepest, darkest roots even if it meant that she would have to face another hell.

She put on a jersey and braided her hair. Then, she drew freckles all over her face and wore a pair of large glasses, turning herself into a less attractive version.
