Unfortunately, Si Chen still didn't hug her. Instead, after thinking for a moment and seemingly concluding that she wasn't seriously hurt, he directly agreed, "Alright, I'll have someone take you back first. Once I've handled everything over there, I'll come back and join you."
"..." Fu Qin froze, her fake tears hanging on her eyelashes.
Are all men fools?
She was just being polite, and he took it seriously?
However, having brought it up, if she didn't agree now, she would seem unreasonable.
She could only meekly say "Hmm," but as she lowered her head, tears started falling rapidly, and she felt so wronged.
Seeing her like this, Si Chen inevitably felt some compassion, compounded by guilt from last night's events, and reluctantly extended his hand to help her up, "Don't worry—once I've finished, I'll come back as soon as I can. Just make yourself at home when you return."
