Shangguan Yutong stood there in a daze. Suddenly, her eyes widened, and with an expression like she'd seen a ghost, she walked around the heavy desk to Ling Xiao's side. She reached out a delicate hand and gently touched his handsome face. Feeling the warmth unique to a human body, a blush crept up Shangguan Yutong's cheeks. She snatched her hand back and stared at Ling Xiao in disbelief, asking, "You... you're Ling Xiao?"
"Heh, surely not. It's only been less than three years. Have you already forgotten what I look like?"
After three years apart, Ling Xiao seemed much more cheerful than before, and the smile on his face was genuine. Indeed, seeing family and friends again filled him with a comfortable warmth from the bottom of his heart. Ling Xiao had snuck in just in time to see Shangguan Yutong returning to her residence from afar, and he decided to play a little prank on her.
