Pei Jinxi's starry eyes flickered as he looked at her, his heart aching and helpless. He reached out to wipe away the tears that had fallen from her eyes, feeling his own heart ache.
"Don't cry, why are you crying, silly?"
His rough fingers brushed across her face, and only then did she realize that she had been crying.
She must still have been too worried, feeling a sense of unreality at the moment.
She could hardly believe she had traveled such a long distance, all the way to Kangli, for one person.
In the past, she might not have even dared to think about it.
She gazed at his cheek, pressing tightly into his embrace.
The embrace trembled slightly.
However, at that moment… outside, Big Beard, the team leader, suddenly burst in.
"Hey, Xiao Mu, you're alright now, right?"
The two of them quickly separated.
She wiped her own cheek. "Team leader… I'm fine now, sorry, did I make you worry? It's my fault, I promised not to cause trouble for everyone."
