Lin Yan's original room.
At this moment, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing had just awakened from their sleep. Lin Yan had gone out last night and never returned, leaving the two girls restless all night.
Ning Rongrong especially had thought that Lin Yan was truly angry this time, perhaps even that he no longer wanted her. She had suffered several nightmares throughout the night.

Lin Yan's tone was cold and even somewhat disdainful, yet he still reached out and wiped the tears
