Seemingly sensing her mood, Mo Xiuchen's eyes tighten slightly. His slender fingers intertwine tightly with hers, and he softly says, "Ranran, don't let your thoughts run wild. No matter what happens, I'm here. You don't have to be afraid or worry."
A warmth springs into Wen Ran's heart. His deep voice, the comforting words—hearing these, her heart, inexplicably, settles down.
"I know. I just hope the police will catch Wu Tianyi soon."
"They will. The net of heaven has wide meshes, but it lets nothing through. Xiao Wenqing has already been arrested, Wu Tianyi won't be able to escape for long."
Despite the low tone of Mo Xiuchen's voice, it carries an undercurrent of determination. His deep-set eyes harbor an unfathomable darkness, which disappears in the next instant, quickly replaced by a soft affectionate gaze that clearly reflects Wen Ran's delicate, fair face.
