YanJun remained in those reassuring arms for so long that he was unwilling to leave the warmth they gave him. When he opened his eyes, it room was brightened with the natural light that came from the window.
"Are you okay now?" Lu Mingyu asked when he pulled away from his arms. The man looked up into his eyes when YanJun stood up.
He wanted to understand what had happened and know the nightmare the younger man had that caused him to react in such a manner but he was scared that he will only make the man begin crying all over again.
