CHAPTER 384
Listening to his mother, Liu Xueyi calmed his breathing. He understood their hurt clearly but he wished they understood his too.
He hated any confrontation with his father as well. He had been trained to be respectful and unlike his cousin, he was well-mannered.
His grandparents sat without making any form of utterance about the matter.
In the corner of the room too, Lin Xiao Xin kept mute but the pained look in those innocent eyes of hers made Liu Xueyi's heart clench.
He did hurt them, didn't he?
He unclenched his fists by his side and exhaled slowly. His lashes fell in rhythm with his chest as the once pent-up anger began to fade away.
Everyone watched with keen eyes, waiting for what was to happen next.
And when he reopened his eyes, breaths were ceased, body stiffened. The air he gave off sent chills everywhere.
