In the room, Song Qiaozhi was in tears. She instantly threw herself into Sheng Kai's arms. "You're still alive. You're still alive..."
"I'm fine. I'm fine." Sheng Kai also hugged her tightly. "I thought I would never see you again. I even thought of going back to the Song family to beg and save you. Even if I die, I'll die with you."
"Ah Kai, I was wrong." Song Qiaozhi broke free from his embrace and looked at him with tears in her eyes. "I was too selfish. I shouldn't have left you in the Song family. We should have asked for help earlier. In that case, Song Jiang wouldn't have forced you to kill people. I was wrong."
Sheng Kai hugged her and sat on the bed. He wiped her tears away. "I don't regret it. I said I would protect you. I'll protect you like a man."
"I don't want you to. I want you to live. I want you to live well."
Song Qiaozhi interrupted him. She reached out to hold his face and instantly kissed him. "I love you, Kai."
