Childhood Sweethearts

The ride home was silent. When they reached their destination, all three girls thanked Ning Wenhao as they prepared to get out of the car.

Ning Wenhao then opened the door for the three girls. Yan Fangfang and Gu Xiaoli got out first while Mu Qingxuan was the last one out as she was seated the furthest from the door.

Mu Qingxuan went into a daze as she watched the tall, towering figure right next to her. Lost in thought, she forgot about the difference in height between an SUV and a normal car, causing her to miss her step.

"Be careful."

Ning Wenhao was quick to react as he reached out and scooped Mu Qingxuan into his arms.

She felt herself land against his sturdy chest as Mu Qingxuan's eyes glazed over a little.

She remembered how she used to play in his arms, refusing to leave, when she was younger.

He was also a child back then. His chest might not have been sturdy when they were younger, but it was warm and fuzzy.
