Quan Tianyou clasped his hands together and placed them on the table, his eyes fixed on the phone lying there. After just having a phone call with Liu Mei, he knew that Su Qing was getting anxious from not seeing Su Liuying for so long, so he resorted to a lie to appease them temporarily.
He was anxious too, wishing he could go find Su Liuying right now, but Zhuang Zixin refused to tell him anything, leaving him helpless. He was afraid that if he pushed too hard, Zhuang Zixin might really attempt suicide, and he still wouldn't get any information about Su Liuying.
He turned his head to glance at the study door, knowing Zhuang Zixin was still upset in the dining room, a scene that played out almost daily. Towards Zhuang Zixin, his heart was filled with utmost disgust. If not for the news about Su Liuying, how could he possibly accept her ridiculous conditions? He must have been blind before; how could he have ever liked such an unreasonable woman?
