The television flickered in front of him, casting soft light across his pale face, but his eyes were unfocused. It almost looked as though he wasn't watching the television at all—as if the television was the one watching him.
Slowly, Jiang Li turned his head toward her.
The dullness in his honey-brown eyes made Luo Xin's chest tighten despite herself.
"Did you buy it…?" he asked quietly, his voice cracking in a way that made her irritation spike instead of soften.
She clicked her tongue under her breath.
Yes, he was hurting.
But it was always the same reason.

Over and over again.
It was becoming exhausting to watch.
