Chapter 193: Chapter 193: I’m Afraid You’re Afraid

The little rascal let out a howl, as if responding to her.

Zhao Haishuang had also prepared a table full of dishes, hoping to cheer him up.

Nowadays, she still wore makeup, but it was far from exquisite.

Her skin looked lifeless, and no amount of foundation could conceal the scars and wrinkles on her face.

She could only keep her hair loose in an attempt to cover her face.
