Tempting Chen Meili!

"In any case, what did you bash your head against yesterday? Lin Xue always sings your praises for your intellect. Did you lose your wits after that blow? What possessed you to rinse your head with water? If the injury was deep and water seeped in, it could have meant instant death," Chen Meili blurted out her concern, unable to hold it back any longer.

She had witnessed Wang Xiao's frequent visits to this place and had formed a certain bond with him. The thought of him meeting an untimely end was unnerving, especially for Lin Xue.

Wang Xiao was momentarily rendered speechless by the abrupt questioning, pondering why he had made such a choice.

On one hand, he self-incriminated; it was merely an attempt to conceal the injury...

Yet, a whisper lingered in his mind, hinting that he might have intentionally sought an escape...

But why?

Wang Xiao found his own mental landscape a chaotic like an intricate maze.
