Her eyes looked unfocused, a typical sign that her mentality had collapsed once.

Qin Chu tightened his grip on Huo Mian's hand under the table to show his objection.

"He did, so I decided to see you," said Huo Mian calmly.

"Can we talk without a man's presence? Can't you… make the decision for yourself? Your husband allows you so little freedom?" Huo Yanyan smirked.
