"Getting married!" Krol almost jumped up.
"Yes, they have a childhood engagement, have a Purple Shell; what do you have?" Nan Moxin spoke gently yet with a sting.
Krol clutched his chest, "Little Watermelon, that's harsh!"
"I'm just stating the facts. One must be brave enough to face reality!" Nan Moxin patted Krol like a big sister, "Don't be upset, time heals all wounds."
"..."
Krol turned his back, refusing to talk to Nan Moxin.
She's siding with her brother! She doesn't truly want to comfort him!

No one knew how long they kissed before Nan Mochen finally let go of Shen Qingyan.
Shen Qingyan's face was flushed, shyly lowering her head, revealing a stretch of smooth, fair neck.
Nan Mochen, impulsive and young, really wanted her right then.
But he remained calm. It wasn't the right time; he had to go kill Li Yin!
"Qingqing, you go home first," Nan Mochen said.
"I'll go with you to find Li Yin," Shen Qingyan held onto his hand, unwilling to let go.
