Chapter 217 Lu Yebai, You Deserve It 2_1

Lu Yebai, losing control of himself, quickly stood up, wiping off the tears on his face with force, and turned his back to her: "I'll go get you some food."

Trail left behind, he fled as if sketched.

"Have you really stopped caring about me? You committed suicide in front of me, don't you realize… how scared I am?"

Lu Yebai's voice seemed to linger in her ears as Meng Xi'er dazedly raised her hand and touched her face.

The tear he had shed onto her cheek was already cold, yet she could still feel the warmth of it.

She shook slightly, perhaps reminded of something. Hastily, she wiped her face clean, her expression growing complex.

Lu Yebai was soon back.

He brought her a glass of peanut milk and a few delicate pastries.

Perhaps scared by Lu Yebai's earlier actions, Meng Xi'er didn't say anything this time. With Lu Yebai's help, she sat up and started eating quietly.

Silence was scarce.
