The woman's voice was warm and gentle, like a warm spring flowing through Yu Jiuqing's heart, easily soothing his deep-seated anxiety and unease.
He squeezed the hand he held and said in a low voice, "Of course I want to hear what you're thinking."
Shen Qing's eyes immediately curved into a slight smile.
This was the first time since returning to this world that she and Yu Jiuqing had spoken so openly.
Though they had once shared the most intimate of relationships, their ten years of separation had ultimately changed them, creating an invisible, intangible barrier between them.
Shen Qing had once worried, fretted, and grown anxious over this barrier.
When Yu Jiuqing had repeatedly refused to reveal his deepest thoughts to her, she had even started to think pessimistically, 'Perhaps this barrier will never disappear.'
But she never expected that after this reunion, the barrier between them would vanish without a trace.
