Lu Ran lowered her eyelids and remained silent.
She held a tiny kitten in her arms, gently stroking it; the soft, furry touch gradually dispelled the gloom in her heart.
"Don't worry." Huo Junyang put his arm around her shoulder. "Men in the Huo family all have discerning eyes and can tell the difference between good and bad! You don't need to feel so insecure. Once I've made up my mind about you, I won't change."
