Lowering his face, he tenderly kissed the corners of her eyes, kissing away each tear, and finally his lips fell on hers again, offering a comforting kiss.
Only when he felt her relax did he hold her tighter once more.
"Chongchong, I will take responsibility!"
...
...
Outside the window, the night was deep and dark.
By the river.
Andre and Chongchong walked hand in hand, side by side, feeling the night breeze sweeping in from afar. Andre hurriedly took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders.
"It's late, it's chilly by the water, shall I walk you back to your room?"
"Okay." Chongchong turned her face to him with a smile, and the two walked hand in hand back to the path, crossing the vineyard to return to the manor castle. Andre reluctantly stopped at her door, leaned in and gave her a gentle kiss on the forehead, "Goodnight."
Raising her hand to his shoulder, she slightly stood on tiptoe and pecked him gently on the lips.
"Goodnight."
