Ever since arriving in this world, Han Yan had unconsciously kept a distance from those around him.
Everything had happened too suddenly. He had spent these days focused on surviving, adapting, and dealing with one problem after another.
Without realizing it, that habit had also shaped the way he treated Lin Xin.
In his eyes, Lin Xin was still young.
When faced with troublesome matters, he had long grown accustomed to handling everything by himself.
As long as he could handle it himself, why make Lin Xin worry?
As long as he could endure it alone, why involve another person?
He had always believed that by bearing everything alone, he was protecting him.
It was only after hearing those words that Han Yan suddenly came to a realization.
Perhaps Lin Xin had never wanted that kind of protection in the first place.
The more Han Yan thought about it, the quieter he became.
