Luo Xiao pursed his lips, yes, he did care, the words that hurt Mo Nanjue also hurt himself, but this care didn't stop him from loving her. These weren't Tong Ran's fault, and as long as she stayed with him, all of this would fade with time. He reached for her again, "Xiao Ran, you believe in me."
"I've always trusted you... I've never doubted you, but after your decisive strike, now who will believe me?"
Tong Ran let out a light laugh, wanting to shake off his hand, but the man didn't give her the chance. Seeing her resolute expression, he said no more, simply bending down to scoop her up and head towards the door, "Let's go to my place first."
"Put me down!"
Tong Ran was already weak from Mo Nanjue's demands, and no matter how hard she struggled, it was of no use. She closed her eyes, feeling a splitting headache. Luo Xiao, fearing she might react violently, moved quickly and soon reached the staircase.
