230: A Glance of Ten Thousand Years

A few days without seeing Jin Mo, Chi Ran's heart felt as if it was being roasted on a fire, full of torment.

Since Tang Yan had already sent someone to take care of him, and Xu Youyou often visited, in Jin Mo's view, Chi Ran's life was not something she needed to worry about.

"You've come at just the right time. I was just about to tell you, the villa's renovations are almost done. After you inspect it in a few days and it passes, my work here will be finished, and I'll have to return to the office for work."

Jin Mo's words were clearly meant as a farewell and also to create distance from Chi Ran.

She would always remember the kindness Chi Ran had shown her, the price he had paid for her, but she couldn't let that blur the lines between gratitude and love.

"So you're leaving." Chi Ran let out a bitter laugh, having thought he could use his injury as an opportunity to get close to Jin Mo. But in the end, he found out that when someone doesn't like you, nothing you do will work.
