Cough cough cough...
Chen Xuan hastily straightened Lin Wanxi's body, retrieving his hand with a slightly embarrassed expression.
"In the heat of the moment, I didn't think much," Chen Xuan forced a smile.
Lin Wanxi blushed, "I understand, I don't blame you."
"You just need to be careful. The Zheng Family certainly won't let you off easy."
Chen Xuan waved dismissively, "There's no need to worry about me. Don't you know my strength by now?"
"But as for you, if the Zheng Family dares to trouble you again, call me immediately."
"Okay." Lin Wanxi softly hummed, falling into silence.
Suddenly, both fell into an awkward silence, unsure of what to say next.
"Um... you should go back. No need to go out of your way to see me off."
Chen Xuan forced a smile, waved, and drove away.
Lin Wanxi watched Chen Xuan's departing figure, feeling uneasy.
Unconsciously, they seemed to become the most familiar strangers, an invisible gap forming between them.
