Yueyao's lips parted in shock, Her tears clung to her lashes as she whispered hoarsely, "I… I was…"
She couldn't even finish her words. Her voice was thin and broken, like cracked glass. He didn't even ask how she was doing!
Shen Xiao glanced around the ward, his brows drawing together in faint disgust at the sight of her hooked up to IV drips, surgical dressings peeking from under her gown, the faint smell of antiseptic and sickness lingering in the air.
He didn't even ask the doctor what had happened to her. To him, it didn't matter. Her presence here was nothing but another inconvenience.
He scoffed lightly, his lips curling in disdain, "Whatever this is… just don't make a scene. You are already pathetic enough with your acts, don't drag my name through the mud with your drama. You should by now know what I'm capable of doing..."
A bitter metallic taste filled Yueyao's mouth as she bit down hard on her trembling tongue to keep from sobbing out loud.
