Pushing open the master bedroom door, he stood at the entrance. Outside the window, it was already completely dark, and two wall lamps beside the bed cast a warm yellow light, illuminating the large bed covered in iron-grey bedding.
There was a small lump there, almost imperceptible if you didn't look closely.
He stood by the door for a while, perhaps feeling the reluctance to approach home. Seeing her lying on his bed, he hesitated to get closer.
Su Yu, in a haze of sleepiness, always felt someone was watching her. She moved slightly and slowly opened her eyes, seeing the man sitting at the edge of the bed, silently staring at her in the dim yellow light.
Her heart couldn't help but flutter; she reached out and rubbed her eyes, "You... you're back?"
Without any hostility or the hateful glare he imagined, just a gentle inquiry, the man's heart was flooded with tenderness, his throat felt a little tight, "Yes, I'm back."
