Two days later, Huo Jingting returned as promised.
It was evening when he arrived home, and Gu Nanqiao had just come out of the shower when she heard a "click" sound at the bedroom door.
She glanced back, seeing his tall figure. He seemed to have lost weight during the few days he was away.
Huo Jingting took off his coat and tossed it on the sofa. She stepped forward to meet him, "You're back."
Her tone carried a hint of playfulness.
"Mm," he casually closed the bedroom door. "It's so late, why aren't you asleep yet?"
"You were coming back, so I couldn't sleep." She stretched out her arms, "Hold me."
Huo Jingting, seeing her playful demeanor, couldn't help but chuckle softly. He reached out to embrace her and teased, "A grown-up acting just like Little Douya."
Gu Nanqiao tightened her arms around his waist, her small face buried against his chest, "I rest against you, it feels so comfortable."
"I don't have a chest, how can it be comfortable?"
