Pei Yansi felt a stab of pain in his chest from the resentful look in her eyes, if only for a moment. It was as if he could hear something shattering within his chest.
He reached out, wanting to embrace Shen Heyu in his arms and to soothe her again; however, upon seeing his approach, she suddenly recoiled as if he were a flood or a ferocious beast, avoiding him as if he were a snake or scorpion.
Pei Yansi paused, not forcing her anymore. He sat back in his original spot and said, "I just didn't want you to know about this fact, after all, it's very cruel."
"But your deceit feels even crueler to me," Shen Heyu coldly replied, a chilling disdain apparent in her eyes as she looked at him.
Pei Yansi just quietly watched her. This time he didn't speak, because he knew she was angry and no matter what he said, she wouldn't listen.
He just sat there, instructed Zhao Jin to drive to a nearby restaurant.
