Chương 270: Stronger

"I am supposed to be angry." Lily declared calmly the moment Zhuo Jingren boarded the car with her. She felt the car started to move as she watched the street lights in front of her. She then let out a sigh, something so gentle and soft that it was immediately drawn by the sound of the traffic ahead of them. "But all I feel is deep sadness." She added before she leaned her head on Zhuo Jingren's shoulders.

In response, Zhuo Jingren reached out and held Lily's hand. He went ahead and slowly squeezed Lily's hand. It was like a gentle reminder that he's here for her- he would always be there for her.

Sadness is something that Zhuo Jingren never understood. He always used to wonder why he would feel sad over something that was already done? There is no use in crying over spilled milk. However, this all changed when he heard about Lily's disappearance seven years ago.
