Upstairs, Song Yansheng and Shi Nuan remained silent, neither saying a word.
Shi Nuan sat on the bed, her head bowed, while Song Yansheng stood there, reaching into his pocket, intending to smoke.
But the pocket was empty; he suddenly remembered he had quit smoking for a while now.
At that moment, Song Yansheng wanted to sneer; both Qu Yuzuo and his mother Yu Yao had previously commented on his smoking and drinking, and he had attempted restraint, but the efforts were in vain.
Yet, for Shi Nuan, he actually quit without much discomfort, whenever he wanted to smoke, just thinking of Shi Nuan allowed him to restrain himself.
Shi Nuan was like a medicine, able to cure all his bad habits.
But Shi Nuan was also like a disease, a chronic condition without a cure.
He closed his eyes, exhaling deeply, and said, "Get some rest, I'm stepping out for a bit!"
Shi Nuan's lowered eyelashes fluttered slightly; she said nothing, as Song Yansheng got up and exited the bedroom.
