"Not a problem." The weight was nothing for him, but it might be a bit heavy for Su Qiqi.
At the door, Su Qiqi started changing her shoes, "It's nice to have you around."
Now, Su Qiqi could say these words with casual ease, and Jin Muchen's acceptance of her boldness added to her airs.
"So, I'm good just because I helped you with the carrying?" Jin Muchen followed her, his tone slightly rising.
"Well... before, there was no one to help me with that." Su Qiqi gave a helpless smile. She had always had to shoulder everything alone in the past, let alone carrying something slightly heavy; the thought of asking someone else for help had probably never crossed her mind.
Jin Muchen's hand, which held on to the bag, clenched slightly; he felt a tightness in his throat that prevented him from speaking.
Seeing his discomfort, Su Qiqi reassured him, "It's just a tiny thing. If I couldn't handle this, I probably wouldn't have made it this far."
