Jiang Luolu sniffed, slowly turned around and walked back to the main hall. Nothing was more important than eating; she would eat her fill first.
Jiang Luoluo's heart was in turmoil and aching terribly. At this moment, she was unable to think or make any decisions.
Meanwhile, Xie Yizhi had already walked a long way through the entire covered walkway, but he still hadn't seen Jiang Luoluo catch up.
He paused, feeling both annoyed and aggrieved, and muttered to himself:
Jiang Luoluo, you big jerk! She's so heartbroken, and you can't even comfort her?
Xie Yizhi was still unwilling to give up, and couldn't help but secretly glance back before quickly turning back.

She took a relaxing hot bath, clearing her mind and dispelling the gloom in her heart.
When she lay down on the bed, the warm blankets enveloped her body, and exhaustion overwhelmed her instantly. Before long, she fell into a deep sleep.
