Chapter 691: Giving You a Sense of Security_1

The night had deepened further. Chen Yiran looked at Tianxin sleeping beside him, reaching out to pull the quilt and covering her with it. He meticulously tucked the corners of the blanket around her before he got off the bed, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window of the room, pulled back the curtain, and gazed at the city's night view.

Chen Yiran turned his head and glanced again at the tired Tianxin who was already asleep, sighing softly.

He took out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter from his suit's pocket on the sofa, then opened the balcony door and stepped outside. The cold wind hit him as he lit a cigarette.

The faint smell of tobacco instantly invaded his lungs before momentarily hovering within him and then being slowly exhaled into the air.

Seems like I have been smoking a bit too frequently lately...

Chen Yiran stared blankly at the dimly flickering red light at his fingertips, his mind filled with recent bothersome thoughts.
