Chapter 836. Warmth (1)
“Do you want another?” Mu Yuchen chuckled as she was still unaware of him. Xi Xiaye was stunned when she heard his deep voice. Her eyes flew open and she stood up quickly as she looked over.
Mu Yuchen’s handsome face appeared before her.
Xi Xiaye took a pause. She could not believe what her eyes were seeing, so she stared at the man for a long time. “Mr. Mu… is that really you? Are you back?”
Mu Yuchen gave her a gentle glance and nodded. “Yep, I’m back.”
Xi Xiaye grabbed his huge hands and started to feel his warmth. Her eyes turned red, and all of a sudden, she broke down and teared up. She covered her nose and faced the other way. “I was so worried about you.”
His heart softened as he wrapped his arms around her to comfort her. “What’s there to worry about? I take good care of myself. I told you that I’d be fine.’
“I went to the police station several times and they didn’t let me see you. It’s been almost half a month. How could I not be worried?” Xi Xiaye raised her head and looked at him.
“You’re such a worrywart. It’s alright now, okay?” He patted her head gently, really missing her. “It must’ve been tough on you. I missed you a lot when I was inside.”
Xi Xiaye hugged him tightly and nodded. “I don’t think I could’ve held on any longer if you were still inside. Every day felt like a nightmare.”
