The thought 'pretend during the day, break inside at night' echoed in Wen Qinxi's mind as he climbed down the stairs in heavy footsteps. He used his long hair to cover up his bloodshot eyes and the mask hid his flushed cheeks. Though he hid his face from the world, at a glance one could clearly see something was weighing him down.
He pushed the emergency door open on the ground floor and walked slowly out of the hospital with his head lowered. He was stuck in his own world that he didn't see Machu walking alongside Qie Ranzhe's mother, Dai Yu and Shao Lan towards the elevator.
Machu naturally noticed him but the aura surrounding Wen Qinxi was so heavy that he couldn't bring himself to talk to him. Deciding to discuss it with Qie Ranzhe he moved on half-listening to the conversation between the three.
