Chapter 281: Neglected You for a Day, This Is My Compensation

At nine-thirty, Shi Yu returned.

His first act upon entering the bedroom was to embrace Shen Cheng and gave her a long, lingering kiss without a word.

After the fervent kiss, he clasped her head, forcing it against his firm chest as he held her, gasping for breath in his arms.

"Did you eat well today?"

His voice was neither cold nor warm, seemingly devoid of any temperature.

Shen Cheng was slightly startled and said nothing, merely nodding gently.

"Good girl."

A tender kiss landed on her forehead.

Shen Cheng raised her eyebrows, wanting to ask something, but did not voice it; perhaps his indifference was merely her misperception.

However, Shi Yu suddenly let go, gently pushed her away from his embrace, "Go to sleep early, I'm a bit tired today."

With that, he turned and walked into the bathroom.

Shen Cheng watched his tall, lean figure and remained silent.
