Bab 218: NOT PERFECT

"Man Rui. Can we take a walk?" Zhu Li Qiang inquired. Chen Linyun tapped his friend on the back to show his support.

The lady narrowed her eyes knowingly before answering, "Lead the way."

They both excused themselves and left Xue Jinxu's room together. They sauntered the whitewashed corridors of Imperial hospital in awkward silence. The air between them was stifling, taut and, in every step, even became more suffocating than it already was.

Teng Man Rui could not hide the strong traces of guilt on her face. She kept her head down while allowing Zhu Li Qiang to walk a few steps ahead of her. She was clenching her fists and had been dreading this awful confrontation. She felt she had sinned against Zhu Li Qiang.
