"But the evidence lines up perfectly," Huo Mian said dispiritedly.
Su Yu walked over, placed his hands on Huo Mian's shoulders, and turned her to face him. "Huo Mian, stay strong. You have to be strong at a time like this. You will get through it."
"But I'm so exhausted, I'm afraid I…"
"You still have me..." Su Yu gently interrupted, his eyes gleaming with tenderness.
"Don't be scared. You can do it. Qin Chu is still waiting for you to clear his name. There's still seven days before his second trial, we have lots of time to find new leads. We will find a loophole in Huo Siqian's plan."
