677 To drill the crack deeper

Arriving at the meeting destination the next day, Jin and Shui were all prepared for the presentation. After last night's short but grim conversation, she tried to break the ice today en route to the meeting place. But Jin was adamant on ignoring her and instead only buried his face in his laptop.

Shui sighed, shaking her head.

"Does it hurt now?"

Surprisingly, Jin took a check on her wellbeing after almost getting a scare last night. It took a moment for Shui to remember, but then her eyes sparkled with hope.

Oh, he is asking about my periods!

Thank God. At least he has not completely blocked all his communication towers.

She cleared her throat and softly nodded. "The cramps have gotten better…"

Jin heard this and nodded. Before Shui could embark on to the journey of continuing the conversation, he had already looked away and stared wide-eyed at the laptop screen as if his life depended on it.
