Wen Ran gazed into Mo Xiuchen's deep eyes, which were brimming with a subtle smile. The hope for her to consent to his earlier proposition was barely hidden within.
He wished for her to stay by his side, yet he dared not to make such a direct request, fearful that she would refuse him. Therefore, he acted extremely carefully.
Seeing him like this made Wen Ran's heart ache. She lowered her eyes, revealing the hint of a struggle lurking within their depths. When she raised her eyes once more, she forced a light smile. "Okay, I will return to work with you."
She did not know how much time she had remaining, nor how long she could stay by his side. All she knew was that she did not wish to leave him. She could not bear the thought of leaving him not even slightest.
As long as he did not press her, or engage in the sort of intimacy normal for a married couple, she would accompany him. Even if it were for just one extra day.
