"I have a terrible temper. I'm trying hard to change."

Shen Luo'an had rarely let go of his ego and spoken this softly.

Shen Manting's restless heart suddenly calmed down.

The fear, hatred, and disgust that she felt only a moment ago...

All these feelings seemed to have disappeared with the lull of his voice full of tenderness.

Shen Manting kept her eyes shut the whole time. She felt a dull ache in her heart.
