Home Sweet Home<hr>
It was already afternoon by the time they arrived at Tiannan CityAnd when they walked into their apartment, Su Chan's cheer was loudToo loudLoud but forcedAffectedContrivedA cheerless cheer which row
Li Yundong lingered at the doorway and observed Su Chan's behaviorAt theat any object within reachThe act would probably fool just about anyone, but not himHow could it fool him when he had already seen firsthand what she looked like when experiencing true joy?
”Yay! How nice to finally be hoed a throw pillow to her chest, then rolled around a few times”How co could no longer ignore the sharp tug in his chestFacing away fro room, he took a deep breath to keep his e this; he already knehy she was doing this
His princess chiper on the couch by the ti, he padded into the living roolanced around the apartmentHe didn't see her in the kitchenThe door of his bedroom was open, so that was probably where she went
Li Yundong sighed and pulled out his phone from his pocket
Zi Yuan picked up after the fifth ring”hello?”
”It's me,” he said
”I know”
”Are you feeling better?”
”Still not hundred percent yet”
Li Yundong sighed and lowered himself onto the couch
”Don't worry,” Zi Yuan said”I'll live”
Easy for you to say, Li Yundong thought, closing his eyesShe wasn't the one who had to wrestle with the guilt of hurting a friend
”Can we ht now” There was a brief pause”I' opened his eyes”Since when?”
<hr>
”Since thisSect business”
Li Yundong frowned”More trouble?”
Zi Yuan sighed”I don't know” A brief pause”Maybe?”
Li Yundong stared at his own reflection in the TV screen, letting the silence linger while he searched for so I can do to help?”
”Yes”
Li Yundong sat up straighter”Na”
Li Yundong sluhed”I wouldn't call that helping”
Zi Yuan chuckled”SeriouslyYou are helpingdecided to let it go”Have you heard back fro?”
”Not yet” Zi Yuan sounded a little worried
”When did she leave?”
”Late last night”
Whichshi+tWhat if Ruan Hongling ran into Yan Fang? Would Yan Fang hurt the people from her own sect?
”Can you think of any reason for her delay?”
Zi Yuan let out a hu Yan Hua no doubt” There was a pause”She couldn't just barge into the Yan family home and then demand to see the swordWhat if there's soue? The et suspicious” Seconds passed in silence until Zi Yuan let out a heavy sigh”Right now, it's Hongling and I against the entire Zhengyi School”
Li Yundong clenched his jawHe didn't like the way things had played outThese stupid squabblesAll for what? Could there be an underlying reason behind theSect? Should he ask?
In the end, he held his tongueZi Yuan would ask him if she needed any help
”Like I saidLetI can do”
Zi Yuan didn't acknowledge his statelanced at his bedroomThe door was still open, so Su Chan was probably still in there, doing God knohat”She's okayPhysically, at leastShe seehed”She tried to hide it fro cheerful and all thatBut…”
”But you can still tell”
”Yeah”
Seconds passed in silence
”I get it though” Zi Yuan sounded wistful
”Yeah?”
”I hed”When I lostapartAnd Hongling was still so young back thenBoth her training and upbringing became my responsibility”
