As Wang Xiao released his grip on Wang Xueying, the room seemed to return to a semblance of calmness...
However, this was merely the calm before the storm.
Suddenly, Wang Xiao's expression froze, his gaze locked on the empty wall.
To others, it appeared as just an empty wall, but for him, it seemed to be harboring an unseen presence, someone who was once again mocking him.
The hallucinations and paranoia that had plagued him for so long seemed to be resurfacing.
Unable to bear the weight of his delusions any longer, Wang Xiao shifted his gaze down, his breathing uneasy.
"Hey, get away from above me, you're too heavy!" Wang Xueying protested while hidding her embarrassment, her eyes locked onto his face, her breath mingling with his.
Wang Xiao's narrowed eyes showed a sudden change in demeanor as he tilted his head slightly, his gaze intense as he observed his sister's face.
