บท 527: The Most Vulnerable

Lu Gan took a deep breath. His heart was heavy. 

'It felt like I've walked a long way…'

Suddenly, someone approached Lu Gan.

It was Song Ci.

'Huh? Why is she here?'

Lu Gan was surprised, but he did not have the energy to show it. He just looked lonely and sad.

Song Ci could feel Lu Gan's overflowing sorrow. She took a step forward and hugged him.

Lu Gan lowered his head and leaned on her shoulder. He rarely showed this side of himself.

Song Ci hugged Lu Gan tightly. Her heart was aching. 

Neither of them spoke.

...

Feeling exhausted, Lu Gan went to sleep as soon as he got home. Song Ci was right next to him. She watched as he closed his eyes.

Lu Gan slept for more than twenty-four hours.

Lu Suo became anxious. 

'Why isn't he awake yet?'

From time to time, Lu Suo would peek into Lu Gan's room.
