"Thank you, Xiao Nuan."
Softly thanking, Yu Ning lowered her head, hiding the gleam slipping through her eyes.
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet. Watching Yu Ning with her head down, silent, Wen Nuan asked with concern, "Xiao Ning, what's wrong?"

Wen Nuan was momentarily stunned.
A subtle, indescribable sadness radiated from Yu Ning, her eyes glistened with a sheen.
