After a whole day of fruitless busyness, Xiao Moyan lay on the white silk bed, her right hand tightly holding the photo of her and Xia Lingying, with tears faintly glimmering at the corner of her eyes.

From the panic she felt when she first learned Xia Lingying was missing, to the anger and sorrow that followed, and now the mix of anxiety and loneliness, Xiao Moyan felt her heart had been torn into pieces within just a few days, no part of it was still whole.

It was Xia Lingying who chose to leave. That much, she was sure of. From the clues A'Sen brought back and Mrs. Xu’s occasional recollections, Xiao Moyan could clearly tell she left of her own will. Then, what was she trying to do? Was she angry because Xiao Moyan hung up on her that day, unable to let go of resentment? Or did she still hate her for that night with Fang Ruoxi?
