Bai Zhi was somewhat perplexed by his sudden departure, but assuming he had something to attend to, she didn't dwell on it.
However, after waiting for quite a while, he still hadn't returned. Bai Zhi sensed something was amiss and got up to find him.
She had seen him leave the restaurant just moments ago, so she went out as well.
Duan Xingzhi's car was parked right in front of the restaurant. She approached and saw him sitting inside, smoking.
The car was dimly lit by a small light, but Bai Zhi could still see the exhaustion on his face and the unmistakable pain in his eyes.
She stood in front of the car, looking at him without moving. Though vehicles passed by noisily, Bai Zhi could hear the sound of her heart bleeding.
Upon seeing her, Duan Xingzhi extinguished the cigarette in his hand and got out of the car.
"Why are you wearing so little? Go back inside."
"You..."
"Go inside."
