"I'm just worried about you." Lu Qingchuan stepped forward and wrapped his arms around her. His heart was racing, "I can't bear to see you getting hurt again. Xixi, I'm so useless. I always said I would protect you, but I haven't done a single thing."
"No, you've done great. Really." Meng Xi'er closed her eyes, feeling the warmth of Lu Qingchuan's body.
All you need to do is stay by my side; that's the greatest protection for me.
Lu Qingchuan took a deep breath, released her, then examined Meng Xi'er carefully again. It seemed he was trying to confirm whether she was truly uninjured or just pretending to be so.
"Really, are you okay?" Lu Qingchuan looked at her, his clear eyes filled with inquiry, "Xixi, if he forces you to do something you don't want to, you can tell me. I will help you."
Looking at Lu Qingchuan's tender and worried eyes, her heart swelled with tears. She didn't want this man to worry for her.
