Chen Yi sat on the bed, observing the girl's face in the moonlight, wrapping an arm around her waist, and softly asked:
"Why are you here?"
"I was worried about you..." Yin Tingxue glanced at the alluring woman from Goryeo, "but it seems like you don't need it..."
"I... I do need it, silly." Chen Yi sighed, his voice dropping towards the end.
By rights, he shouldn't have felt so guilty and ashamed.
In the past, he'd simply tap Yin Tingxue's forehead and say, "Can you control me?" and that would be it.
Yet, at this moment, his mood was inexplicably hollow.
Chen Yi leaned forward, intending to say something, but his palm suddenly felt wet.
It turned out she had started crying silently, tear by tear.
Dong Guifei, witnessing the girl's tears, silently slipped on her clothing and stepped outside to wait in the courtyard.
Only the two of them remained in the room.
