Song Qingchen sounded even more heartbroken at the nurse's words. She kept repeating, "No, no… It was all my fault. I shouldn't have come back. You two wouldn't be affected if I wasn't here… If I knew coming back would be so painful, I would rather have died ten years ago. Brother Ah Ze, sob…"
The nurse got angrier. "Did your girlfriend hit her because she was jealous that this girl is prettier? She could have ruined her face! That's so vicious…"
Sheng Yize stood there with his arms crossed and listened to all this in silence. His black eyes revealed nothing. He then narrowed his eyes, as if he had seen through everything.
"Songsong, does it hurt that bad?" His long fingers touched Song Qingchen's cheek and his voice was gentle.
"Brother Ah Ze…" Song Qingchen only went on crying.
She was hooked on the warmth and smell of his fingers and she rubbed her cheek against his palm like a helpless stray cat.
