"Are you hungry?"
"I'm in a hurry to get to the hospital."
Lu Li furrowed his brows, "It won't take more than a few minutes."
The few cats under the tree root smelled the aroma of the food and all gathered around, circling at their feet.
"Lu Li, you don't have to do these things," Nan Wan pushed away the hand grasping her wrist, looked up and gave him a slight smile. Her tone was low, but loud enough to reach his ear, "Just like before is fine."
"I'm not that noble, what I do isn't just for you. You should know what kind of person I am; I wouldn't let myself suffer."
Then, she stepped past him. As their forms crossed, she casually added, "Be gentle when you open the door, Mrs. Nan has a serious case of morning grumpiness."
The sound of footsteps gradually faded, but Lu Li still maintained his original posture, his dark eyes half closed, emotions well-hidden.
For a long time.

The car had just been driving for ten minutes when, unfortunately, it was hit.
