"Arou, don't be afraid!"
Ye Tian patted Zhu Rou's shoulder, comforting her, but Zhu Rou was still relentless.
"Ye Tian, don't go, if you leave, I don't know what will happen to me!"
Zhu Rou's face was full of panic. The only person she could think of who could protect her was Ye Tian alone. She didn't want Ye Tian to leave. Without him, she would have no sense of security!
"Good girl! Don't be afraid!"
Ye Tian hugged Zhu Rou, patting her back, while Zhu Rou buried her face in Ye Tian's chest, her face flushed with warmth that Ye Tian could clearly feel.
Zhu Rou, because of fear, could not bear Ye Tian leaving...
"..."
After hugging for a while, Zhu Rou lifted her head, her face filled with longing as she looked at Ye Tian. Ye Tian, seeing the look in Zhu Rou's eyes, really couldn't bear to leave her.
But he couldn't stay because the people he needed to protect weren't just Zhu Rou alone; there was the entire Jiangcheng to consider!
