Yet, deep down, he felt quite perplexed. Why was he not truly angry despite the man acting this way, feeling only a sense of powerlessness? Could it be that he really had fallen for him, just as the man claimed?
Zhao Xin continued to stare at Ye Xiao, as if trying to see right through him, while Ye Xiao maintained the same expression, looking for all the world as if he were truly innocent.
Because of this, An Yixia felt apologetic and deeply guilty whenever she faced Aselda. This guilt made it impossible for her to feel happy whenever she saw his face.
She took three hundred yuan with her and, instead of obediently going to eat, returned to the street with the flower and bird market, intending to settle on her great-grandfather's clothes that very day. However, the shop was already closed.
