For some reason, the image of Xia Xiaonuan's stubborn eyes in the hospital surfaced in his mind.
A faint arc of helplessness formed at the corner of his lips.
"Young Master, you have been looking for this girl for years... but still..."
"No need to look anymore." Nangong Yaoling said somewhat desolately, opening the drawer and calmly placing the painting back.
Qin Liu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Maybe it's all fate. What's the point of being persistent over someone who doesn't belong to you? Besides... I don't want to hurt innocent people around me anymore..."
"Young Master, are you talking about... the young lady?"
Nangong Yaoling's face darkened, he lifted his gaze and shot a cold glance at Qin Yi.
Qin Yi stepped back in panic, quickly bowed his head and said, "I didn't mean to... Young Master..."
"..."
Seeing Nangong Yaoling's face soften a little, Qin Yi smiled apologetically and continued, "No matter what, I'm happy that the Young Master can let go."
