"No need, since we’re already here." Lin Mengyao shook her head, holding onto Xu Ke’s arm.

"Don’t force yourself. If you don’t want to stay, I can still take you out of here." Xu Ke said, supporting Lin Mengyao’s arm.

"Really, it’s alright, I can handle it." Lin Mengyao’s face still looked a bit pale, and when she smiled at Xu Ke, there was an indescribable sense of fragility and pity. For a moment, Xu Ke wanted to take Lin Mengyao away, but seeing her determined eyes, he stayed.
