The complaining is unsurprising.

But there's more of it than usually, and then there's that visible emotion on his face. It makes Inigo's expression soften more and more, until the concern is so present and overwhelming that Inigo can't really do anything but lean forward, just so he can wrap his arms around Jingyi again.

Is a hug going to make this alright? Of course not. But it can't make things worse, and that's the logic Inigo is going by.

".. I'm sorry," he says, his voice so soft that it's a near whisper. Like it's meant for just the two of them. "I'm sure you worked really hard to get your point across. And to think on what to say."

Well, maybe not think, because when the Jingyi complain train leaves the station, it goes hard. But he did mention actually defending the train, which means Jingyi must have weighed a whole lot of different options in his head back there.

"But.. I'm not sure if it'll make you feel better, but I think I might actually have a bit of good news too. Some potentially good news, anyway."
