บท 424: The Song Has Ended

In the hall, a waltz tune sounded. She could visualize how the hall would look like with all the couples happily dancing to the tune. But then again, all she wanted to do was to stay out of it.

She lifted her head and gazed at the towering figure heading towards her. She bent her head and a bitter smile appeared on her face.

It seemed too much to hope to just stay at this spot for a moment longer.

Yan Rusheng had a cigarette in his hand as he strode towards Xuxu. He noticed that she looked rather peaky and he frowned. "Are you feeling unwell?"

"I'm fine," Xuxu replied softly and shook her head. She threw her tissues into the trash can and straightened her back. "Let's go."

She thought to herself, 'Just endure it for a while more, the celebration will be over soon.'

"Let's go get some warm water." Yan Rusheng flicked his cigarette away and held Xuxu's hand as they left for the main hall.
