Ade didn't want to leave, but threatened by Su Yan's sharp gaze, he had to obediently back off, retreating further and further.
After shooing Ade away, Su Yan looked at Bai Xue, not daring to step forward for a while.
Bai Xue heard his footsteps behind her and knew he was there but she continued standing with her back to him, seemingly without the intention of turning around to face him.
Neither of them spoke a word and stood in silence.
Only the wind was moving between them.
Eventually, it was Bai Xue who broke the silence, "Why are you following me?"
Her gaze was fixed on a tree in the distance, but her thoughts were certainly not on it. Her exquisite face remained calm and unreadable, alluding to her current emotions.
Su Yan laughed bitterly. True to Mrs. Su's nature, the first thing out of her mouth was a sharp question!
How was he supposed to answer?
"Why don't you ask me when I came back, why I came back?" He awkwardly dodged her question.
