One After Another

"The bed is not small. Come up and sleep with me for a while." Jiang Yao patted the empty space beside her. "Hug me for a while. I was scared to death today. When I fell to the ground, I felt a pain in my stomach. I wanted to cry."

Lu Xingzhi realized that was the second time he had watched her get injured in front of him.

His distinct aroma filled the space between their breaths. Hugging him felt like leaning on a tall mountain, putting her at rest.

She seemed to want to say something to him, but as she leaned into his arms, she did not have the time to say anything before drowsiness started to sweep over her.
