Chapter 176: Alone

As soon as the room was emptied, the room was filled with a long silence. Left on her own devices, Xiu Mei's eyes lingered on the door for a short moment before roaming her eyes around the room. 

She took Doctor Lee's advice to heart. Maybe if she was left alone, she could speak. But right now, she was too tense and pressured to speak. So Doctor Lee left her alone inside the room to see if she's calmed down, then maybe she could speak. So Xiu Mei did what he proposed and tried to gather her thoughts first.

She saw a couple of fruits and some familiar workbooks on the nearby table. There were even some blankets and a handful of clothes laying around messily on the sofa. 

Seeing those, she knew that Lu Qiang must have been staying with her again just like what he did before. 

She lowered her eyes and noticed her hands. She furrowed her eyebrows in confusion as she looked at her hands closely. She slightly pulled down her sleeves and affirmed her thoughts.
