Ming Mei lifted her chin, "Crying like a baby, that's something only little girls do, I wouldn't be so pathetic!"
After the internal stress of Kang Chen has receded, he became relaxed, draping one arm over Ming Mei as they half-layed on the sofa, his large hand gently patting her. He asked, "And what can you do?"
Ming Mei's eyes flickered mischievously, like a sly little fox, "I...hmm..."
She leaned towards Kang Chen, planting a kiss on his lips, and said with a grin, "I will only devour you until there's nothing left."
Kang Chen was extremely satisfied with that response.
He curled his lips and caressed Ming Mei's head, she was just too adorable. The smile on his face felt so heartfelt, his heart filled with joy...
This kind of joy wasn't the jubilation that followed a battle, nor was it the ease felt in the company of friends.
It was complete relaxation, the delight radiating from every cell of his body.
