"Bai Lei?" Zhen says causing me to freeze. I slowly look up and instantly lock onto familiar red eyes. My heart leaps with joy but also a little fear. Will he blame me for what I did before? It's been ten years for him... does he still love me?Β
Before my brain could come up with more things to question, Bai Lei suddenly appears before me and has me wrapped in his familiar tight embrace. He holds me so tight, it's hard to breathe but I don't say anything. If anything, I nuzzle up against his solid chest and close my eyes.
I was so worried about how I would find him... and yet, here he is. He found me. The other three back off and walk to the other side of the courtyard to give us space but Bai Lei still hasn't moved. Every time I try to step back, he pulls me closer and tightens his grip.Β
