Chapter 78 - 77: Running Away from Home (3)
Shi Yang turned around and saw Zhao Meimei standing at the door of the mail room with a look of surprise on her face.
Thank goodness... Shi Yang let out a breath of relief, grateful that Zhao Meimei had found her way here safely.
Shi Yang stood still, watching Zhao Meimei, and then his body, tense like a bowstring, abruptly relaxed. His knees buckled, and he stumbled a step forward before he managed to steady himself again. His face showed a mix of great sadness and joy, with an expression slightly stiff, revealing neither happiness nor anger.
Zhao Meimei called out again, "Brother!"
Upon hearing her voice, Shi Yang felt his heart settle completely. Only then did he realize that he was drenched in cold sweat. He looked at Zhao Meimei and gave a genuine shiver.
Zhao Meimei rushed over excitedly and flung herself into Shi Yang’s arms. Shi Yang stumbled back two steps before regaining his balance.
Zhao Meimei held her Brother Yangyang’s waist tightly, her words spilling out in excitement, "Brother! I finally get to see you! Oooh! Brother! Brother Yangyang!!"
Shi Yang looked down at Zhao Meimei, who had thrown herself into his arms, and without hesitation, reached out to hold her tightly, locking her securely in his embrace as waves of immense joy flooded him, leaving his mind in a blank state.
As Zhao Meimei gleefully called out, she was enveloped by Shi Yang’s full weight, pinning her down with his long, strong arms wrapped around her back, carrying the familiar scent of his shower gel.
After holding her tightly for a moment, Shi Yang finally disentangled Zhao Meimei from his embrace, drawing her close to scrutinize her carefully, ensuring she wasn’t hurt, before closing his eyes and taking a deep breath, feeling utterly drained.
