Just at that moment, Quan Shaoqing suddenly stirred.
Apparently startled, he then opened his eyes and found the light in front of him blocked by a silhouette.
Looking up, he saw Gu Xiaoxi with reddened eyes, standing at the window of his car.
His heart constricted instinctively, he pushed the car door open and got out, took her hand, and asked with concern, "Why are you crying? Did someone bully you?"
The worry in his voice, each word like a heavy stone, struck her heart.
She dropped her luggage bag, reached out, buried her face in his embrace, and hugged him tightly.
For some reason, her heart felt so heavy at that moment, and tears involuntarily fell from her eyes.
"Be good! Is it someone from Department L who has bullied you? I'll take it up with Mr. Zhang," Quan Shaoqing hugged Gu Xiaoxi. It was then he noticed that this woman had grown taller again. Now she had reached the height of his shoulders.
