Li Zirui (1)

Li Chuntao wasn't sure how long Shen Zichen had been standing right behind her. Had he heard everything she'd said? She tried to read him but the man didn't even give her a clue. He seemed deep in thought and she could only guess that he overheard the last part of her monologue. 

"Brother Zichen, what are you doing here?" She asked as she continued to stride outside. 

Shen Zichen followed her closely, walking next to her. He didn't say anything. He wasn't sure if he should confront her about the truth Zheng Yue had confessed to him earlier. The guilt was eating him inside. He didn't know that he'd been hurting Li Chuntao without him knowing about it. 

The cold breeze was comparable to the coldness Li Chuntao had in her heart. The fallen leaves at their feet swished and moved as the wind continued to blow.
