The two of them hugged in silence.
After some time, he suddenly said, "I dreamed of hugging you like this..."
That one line melted Ji Yi's heart.
"...now, I finally got that hug..."
There was a faint hint of emotion in He Jichen's voice that made Ji Yi's eyes sore for some reason. She didn't say anything but hugged He Jichen's arm tighter.
...
It was already half past ten by the time they returned to Beijing.
He Jichen woke up once while Ji Yi slept throughout the day. He gave Zhang Sao a call and asked her to head over to the apartment early to clean up, so after their plane landed, he asked Tang Huahua to immediately drive them to his apartment.
Zhang Sao was no longer there, but there were hot dishes on the dining table for them.
It was midnight by the time they finished dinner and headed back to the bedroom.
