Her heart swelled when he shifted and kissed her on her head. The kiss lingered, warm and loving.
"Shall I draw a bath for you, Sunshine?" Yu Zhen murmured into her hair. He breathed in her scent, sweet and musky, mixing with his.
Li Xueyue wondered what had triggered him a few hours prior to this. But he seemed fine now… She glanced at their entwined fingers. Her other hand brushed on his knuckles that had tiny scars that had faded over time. She could not help but kiss the tiny scars, knowing he must've gotten them during his childhood—a little boy who was constantly pushed to his limits.
"Don't do that," Yu Zhen muttered, as he hugged her tighter.
