It's Not Important

The woman's high-pitched voice was in bits and pieces when it came to their ears.

Xiang Wan could feel Bai Muchuan's back stiffen.

She embraced him tighter.

"Bai Muchuan…"

He didn't reply.

He was as quiet as a statue.

"Bai Muchuan…"

Xiang Wan called his name again.

This time, he lifted his hand slowly to touch her finger. "Let's leave, okay?"

Leave?

Xiang Wan was confused.

It was so late already… Where did he want to go?

Bai Muchuan didn't wait for her reply. He took hold of her wrist and strode away.

Somewhere in the courtyard, Zhu Xueyan was crying while Bai Zhenhua was smoking quietly. He didn't comfort her and seemed to be deep in thought…

Bai Muchuan's sudden appearance together with Xiang Wan, startled the unhappy couple.

Bai Zhenhua said sternly, "Where are you going?"

Bai Muchuan replied without turning his head, "I'm going home."
