If Xie Xiao didn't really think much when they were downstairs, then after they came up, Luo Yanran had just finished speaking.
Her confession of liking him exploded in his heart.
He wanted to embrace her, to kiss her, to confirm she belonged to him.
Without a word, Xie Xiao pulled her out of the elevator and then walked to the front door and unlocked it.
The sound of the door closing, accompanied by the keys lightly hitting the shoe cabinet, could be heard before Luo Yanran could react, finding herself embraced in his arms.
The familiar scent told her this was Xie Xiao.
Luo Yanran felt his hold on her a bit too tight, so she gently pushed Xie Xiao, "What's wrong?"
Xie Xiao didn't respond at first, and after a moment he exhaled, "I just wanted to hug you. I really didn't want to do anything, but what you just said was too challenging for me."
Challenging his reason and impulse.
Luo Yanran froze for a second, then gently hugged him back, "But I meant every word I said."
