Qin Zhiyou was waiting outside, when he saw her still wearing the radiation suit, in slippers, hair uncombed, supporting herself against the door with one hand, her brow slightly furrowed, looking at him with a worried face.
Despite the scene being somewhat comical, seeing the worry in her eyes softened his own gaze.
Qin Zhiyou began, "I'm leaving."
Lu Weixi didn't speak, still looking at him with a slight frown.
Qin Zhiyou took a step forward, but she stepped back instead, then turned around, ignoring him.
Qin Zhiyou had a lot he wanted to say, but all he could manage was, "Be careful."
He felt uneasy not being by her side. But there was a problem at the demonstration area, with a worker violating protocol during work and getting seriously injured and unconscious.
This matter could be big or small, but the real issue was that it got leaked within half an hour of happening, clearly someone was targeting him.
