Chương 97: Chapter 97: As You Please

Like a deliberately suppressed voice, afraid of being heard by others, it was like a kitten's whine, delicate and soft, all the more heartbreaking.

In just less than a minute, her eyes were already swollen red, even her face was as though it had been covered with thick rouge, flushed crimson.

Her tears flowed non-stop, all she could do was, awkwardly, use her uninjured hand to wipe them away. But, alas, she just couldn't get her face clean, she sobbed, and looked so pitiful.
