254 Teahouse Talk

Xia Ling was there to apologize, but now she simply could not utter anything.

Li Lei waited for a while. Seeing that she was not saying anything, he asked, "Is anything the matter?" He felt like he held himself cheap. He was the one that was hit but ended up being the one to initiate conversation. All his life, was there even anyone who did not treat him like a gem? It was truly strange, no matter how this woman made things difficult for him, he simply could not bear to see her leave.

Li Lei looked awful and angry at himself.

Xia Ling was a little frightened by his expression and paused for a while before saying, "Well… I apologize. I shouldn't have hit you." Her voice was soft, not daring to even look up at him.

Li Lei did not respond for a long while.

She looked up, slightly apprehensively, and saw that he was looking at her with an expression she could not comprehend.
