525 The 'Jin' wall

On one side where Nian celebrated the joy of finally officiating his relationship with Xing Bi, the silence and awkwardness on Jin's side between him and Shui hit an all-time record high.

Jin drove while glancing at Shui's side from time to time but not knowing what to speak. The awkwardness in the air was suffocating enough to drive him crazy. Since he was alone with her, there were many things in his mind he wished to talk to her about.

He peeked at Shui once again who was idly playing around with her phone, looking calm and composed. But only she knew in her heart how this atmosphere was equally killing her.

Jin clutched the steering wheel, remembering his father's words.

'I thought you stopped running away from the things that matter.'

For how long will I remain a coward…

He parted his lips but found it difficult to find his voice. He could feel his heart pounding loudly back and forth in his chest.

Was apologizing always this tough?
