"Huai'an!" she exclaimed, and without a second thought, plunged into his embrace, hugging his waist tightly, murmuring softly, "Huai'an, I've missed you so much."
Huai'an patted her cheek, saying gently, "Lingyu, have you been drinking? Should I take you home now? It's getting late."
Clutching his waist, with her head buried in his chest, her voice was muffled, "No, I don't want to go home, I want you to stay with me. It's been half a month since we last saw each other, I miss you so much…"
Huai'an took it as drunken babble, scooped her up in his arms, and headed to the elevator, "Come on, I'll take you home first."
"Huai'an," she mumbled on, though her eyes were hazy with intoxication, she clung to his neck with both hands, savoring the rare tenderness from Huai'an.
