As they crossed the road, Long Xiliang naturally took her fingers in his hand.
He didn't reach for Lu Xiaoyou's entire hand, just cupped her fingertips, somewhat cautiously.
Lu Xiaoyou lifted the corners of her lips, letting him hold them as such.
Going out on a date was a huge challenge for Long Xiliang, as he would have to spend a day amid the noisy crowd, something that he would never have allowed himself to do before.
When his fingers touched Lu Xiaoyou's, the tens of thousands of sounds that stimulated the cerebral cortex were suddenly blocked out.
It was as if Lu Xiaoyou had opened up a protective shield for him, allowing him to withstand the noise from the outside world.
Yet even as the external sounds were excluded, there was still an emptiness inside him, and he yearned for Lu Xiaoyou to fill him up...
This voice kept clamoring, never ceasing, and in recent times, the desire for her grew louder, making his entire being feel desolate.
