"I don't want to be alone, can you talk to me?"
Huo Tingxiao looked at Mu Lan, his tone somewhat desolate.
Mu Lan had never seen him like this. Huo Tingxiao was always full of vigor, unbeatable in his confidence to the point of arrogance. He never let any matter affect his emotions too much.
She once thought this man didn't have a heart, and that he was indifferent to everyone.
Although she knew she shouldn't let him stay, Mu Lan still felt somewhat reluctant to be hard on him. Women are always too tender-hearted.
"Okay."
Mu Lan gently withdrew her hand and shifted a bit to the side, signaling him to sit down.
Huo Tingxiao did not dare to presume too much and sat at the far edge of the bed.
"I feel like I don't have a heart, that my family just fell apart, and yet I feel a sense of relief."
Mu Lan watched Huo Tingxiao as he opened up to her, bit by bit.
"Do you feel that you no longer have to please people as you did before?"
