Before he could lift a foot, Ji Yi, who was sitting on the sofa, quickly reached out and grabbed his hand.
The touch of her fingers felt like an intense electric current engulfing He Jichen's entire body. It made his back tighten up.
Before he could react to her sudden touch, he felt her other soft arm circling around his waist. He instinctively lowered his head and saw that she loosened the hand grabbing his hand and also wrapped it around his waist. Then she tightly clasped both hands together.
He Jichen's body trembled as his back tightened more fiercely. With his head down, he stared at both her fair little hands around his waist for a while. He wanted to break free from her grip before she drew closer, pressing her face gently against his back.
Through the thin fabric, he could feel the softness of her face. It seemed like she was searching for a comfortable spot as her little face nuzzled his back for a short while before settling down.
