The familiar light fragrance suddenly hit him— Jing Yi slowly raised his eyes, looking somewhat dazed, but the burning pain on his cheek clearly told him that the person protecting him was indeed Shu He. She had witnessed this utterly miserable scene. Jing Ze Liang methodically wiped his hands with a handkerchief, his movements precise,…

The next day, Shu He went to pick up Yao Qing from the hospital. On the way home, Shu Hua casually mentioned: “Xiao Yun had something to do and couldn’t make it, otherwise he wanted to come see us off.” Shu He pretended not to hear and sent a message to Jing Yi: [We’ll arrive…

Shu He’s heart beat faster. She pushed him away firmly and questioned suspiciously, “You’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you?” He picked up his crutch slowly to support himself. “No.” Shu He pretended not to hear his self-pitying tone.

“I have separation anxiety, Shu He. Can you come back earlier?” “….Do you have to be so clingy?” “I miss you.” In the past when they were dating, whenever she needed to go home for the New Year, he would always be this sticky and affectionate, wanting her to return soon. Shu He turned around…
