Yin Shixiu held her tightly for a long time, then whispered in her ear, "Sorry... it won't happen again."
Su Xiaomeng suddenly felt her eyes redden, her eye sockets burning, and her nose a bit sour.
She could hear his solid heartbeat echoing from his chest.
Through a layer of skin, it passed from his cheek to her ear.
He hugged her so tightly that she felt pain...
Her thin arms wrapped around his waist, fingertips interlocked behind him.
The redness in her eyes finally gave way to a hint of a smile, which spread from the corners of her eyes, lifting the corners of her mouth.
The cold, rigid lines on Yin Shixiu's face finally softened.
She was always easy to coax...
This time, it was his stubbornness.
"Alright, take a look at our home. Do you like it?"
Only then did Su Xiaomeng slip out of his embrace, her eyes still wet, her hand clutching his coat, turning around to look at this overly large... home.
