Chapter 1259. Don“t Want To Leave You 1
The evening sunset glow colored half the sky red. Soon, the boundless gray came slowly with the night breeze, swallowing the final light by the horizons, and then the sky quietened down. On the streets of Los Angeles early one evening, Xi Xiaye was dressed in a light beige fall dress with a small black jacket, and her waist-length hair was tied casually into a bun. She walked along unhurriedly on this slightly noisy street.
Beside her was Mu Yuchen. He held her frail shoulders by habit while his other hand held the jacket that he had just taken off.
The husband and wife did not say much. They just walked like that for quite a distance until Xi Xiaye then slowly stopped to reach out and pull at his sleeve. She turned and looked up quietly at him.
“What’s wrong?” Mu Yuchen was surprised that she had suddenly stopped.
“Settle the problem sooner and come home quickly. I’m worried about you being alone out here. Father and Mother have called to urge you home now. Everyone’s really worried about you.” Xi Xiaye’s soft voice was clearly concerned.
As he smiled, his hand that held her shoulder tightened and he pulled her into his warm embrace and said in a low, raspy voice, “Don’t worry. I promise I won’t take too long. Besides, I’m not alone here. Zimo and Li Si are here too. Su Chen’s probably coming over soon too.”
“Does the Zhou family know about Zimo already?” Xi Xiaye asked with concern.
“Su Chen’s told them. Even though they are worried, they are willing to trust us. Zimo has explained it to Uncle Zhou. When you go back, just pretend you don’t know what’s happening here. You’re just here to be on holiday with me, okay?” he carefully explained.
She nodded gladly and responded, “Mmm, I understand. I’m just here to be on holiday with you, and then go back home with Su Nan and Ruan Heng.”
