"How... how did you get in?" she asked, breathing in the faint scent of green tea on his body, her heart pounding fiercely.
"Nangong Yaoling locked me up and wouldn't let me see you! Luckily, our rooms were only one apart. I climbed over from the terrace!" Shaochen said through gritted teeth.
His low voice echoed in her ears, and Xia Xiaonuan couldn't help but laugh.
"Shaochen... I'm just glad you're alright... I was so worried about you..."
"I'm fine!" Shaochen let go of her and held her face.
His deep gaze was fixed on her, moving across her face.
"Qiqi... I'm sorry, it's all my fault for not protecting you! If something really happened to you this time, I wouldn't continue living in this world!"
Xia Xiaonuan's body shook, and she quickly reached out to cover his lips.
"Don't say that! Aren't I perfectly fine?" she scolded.
