My daughter is sick

The room became quiet after the words that were heard from Jin Lisa.

Cai Sijian didn't want to admit that he was afraid. Maybe it was because of his manly pride but he rather became quiet than admit it.

Now she knew his past, it was better if she stopped asking him more questions. She faked a yawn before saying, "Sijian, why don't we get some rest? It's already late."

"Mmm yeah." He released her hand and looked at her, "I should go back."

As he stood up, she quickly stopped him by saying, "Wait!"

His eyes landed back on her, "Hm?"

Her lips were stretched into a thin line as she hesitated. She averted her eyes just to avoid his gaze. She could feel her cheeks heat up and her heart race. "W-why don't you..." She stuttered and paused.
