Give You Two Choices
Now seated across from each other, Li Na felt an awkward tension filling the space. She found herself walking a delicate line, unsure how to feel about Lu Jianjun whether she dislike him or not. Because it boils her blood to know how he has treated and ignored Li Na to the point that the dumb girl perpetrated suicide but at the same, she also appreciates how attentive and involved he's as he had taken good care of Little Tiger's well-being. His attentive care had likely saved her son from the dire consequences of her own failings. The contradiction of his actions left her conflicted and resentful, yet reluctantly grateful.
As Li Na sat silently, trying to gather her thoughts on how to actually initiate a conversation that wouldn't spiral into accusations like their morning encounter, Lu Jianjun watched her patiently. He seemed to sense her inner turmoil and appeared in no rush to press the conversation forward.
