Ever since the day he fell ill from the snow, Tang Yan had been persistently weak. Although he was generally healthy, he refused to take medications or undergo any examinations, became irritable, spoke less, and threw himself entirely into his work as if to exhaust himself so he wouldn't have time to think of Jin Mo.
Song Qi would often visit the apartment, but Tang Yan remained indifferent. During this period, Tang Ningya also visited for business-related matters, but her suggestions were mostly rejected.
This was a form of resistance as well as retaliation from Tang Yan.
He was well aware of Tang Ningya's behind-the-scenes maneuvers and could clearly investigate them. He said nothing not because he didn't want to have a falling out with her but because he didn't want to demean himself because of Jin Mo.
