Chapter 171: You Are My First Love.
Pei Yu’s pajamas were useless, for Shen Zhiyi had spilled hot cocoa all over her hands, sticky and messy, so she had to go to the bathroom to wash them.
The light here was bright, casting her brows and eyes in sharp relief. She had taken off her coat upon entering, and now she was wearing a long knitted dress, making her appear altogether soft.
Pei Yu leaned against the doorframe watching her, still feeling it was unreal. He hadn’t expected Shen Zhiyi would come. He had been thinking about how to wrap things up here quickly so he could rush back to see her.
"Why are you always looking at me?" Shen Zhiyi wiped her hands dry, and seeing that he had taken off the stained pajama top, exposing his bare upper body, she joked on purpose, "Are you trying to seduce me?"
Pei Yu had missed her a lot these past few days, and now that she was standing right in front of him, his pent-up longing transformed into tender affection, softening the normally cool features of his face with an imperceptible warmth.
He opened his arms and embraced Shen Zhiyi, "Did you come looking for me because you missed me?"
This was something he hadn’t dared to imagine.
The two of them were actually very busy. He was often running around out of province or country, and Shen Zhiyi, while filming movies and recording shows, was also traveling all over the place, and once she left, it was often for many days. Pei Yu often told her he missed her, but she rarely said similar things. Even if she did, it was probably just to appease him.
"Yes," Shen Zhiyi was held tightly by him, her cheek against his warm chest, able to hear his steady and strong heartbeat, making her fluttering heart settle down as well, "I missed you a lot."
Pei Yu kissed the top of her head, his eyes clearly filled with a smile, as if he were very delighted, "It’s so rare that Miss Shen isn’t busy with work but came to see me. Aren’t you afraid of neglecting important matters?"
"Who says seeing you isn’t important?" Shen Zhiyi felt the kiss he placed on the top of her head, and as a tit-for-tat response, she gently pressed against his chest, which only made the arms around her waist tighten further.
