He held her petite body in his arms, clearly feeling her shakes of utter helplessness.
Ou Chengtian held her tight, soothing her emotions by gently patting her back and whispering, "Easy, don't be scared, I'm right here with you, don't be scared."
This was the first time he had seen Xia Liyou so lost and helpless. Even before when he tormented her she would only endure the humiliation, never shedding a tear in front of him.
So when he had heard her cry out earlier, his heart nearly shattered.
The sound of Xia Liyou's sobbing gradually quietened, but she clung onto Ou Chengtian, as if she feared that he would run away the very next second.
Her head rested against his chest, and after a while, when she had finally calmed down, she realized something was amiss.
Strange, why does it feel slippery?
Doubting her own senses, Xia Liyou rubbed against him one more time and confirmed her feelings.
