She came to his side, leaning gently into his embrace.
"Are you waiting for me?"
"I would do anything as long as I can wait for you."
Qiao Mai pointed to his heart with her finger, and Yuan Jiaqi immediately felt a warm sensation in his chest.
"What is this?"
"Vitality, hidden in your heart, nourishing your organs. You'll live a long and healthy life without illness or pain."
"Wife, you bring such a great gift as soon as you come out of seclusion, but I have nothing to offer you."
"You do."
"What is it?"
"Waiting for me is your gift."
Just as the two were immersed in their affectionate moment, a group gathered in the courtyard.
"Mother, you're out of seclusion?"
"Mother-in-law, you're out of seclusion?"
"Girl, you're out of seclusion?"
The two turned around, smiling at them. "Sorry to have worried you. I didn't expect it to take this long."
