Even if I never marry, what happens when I'm old?
All alone, without a single relative, life must be so bleak.
The more Mo Ran thought about this, the more fragile she became, the sadness on her face growing more evident. She suddenly felt so helpless. Who would save her, save her future...
"What's wrong?" a voice suddenly sounded by her ear. Startled, she turned her head and locked eyes with Gu Yixuan.
She had been so immersed in her sorrow that she hadn't even noticed when he came back.
Caught off guard, all the helplessness and pain in her eyes were exposed to him.
Gu Yixuan's eyebrows furrowed slightly as he asked in a deep voice, "What's happened?"
She rarely showed her vulnerable side in front of him, so seeing her like this, Gu Yixuan was a bit surprised. Deep down, he felt a slight discomfort, as if pricked by a thorn.
He really wanted to reach out and cover her eyes so he wouldn't be thrown into disarray by the sadness in her gaze.
