I'll Be Home Right Away

Yan Rusheng nodded to indicate his assent. After gazing at Bai Jing once more, he turned around to leave.

Bai Jing spun her head around to glance at Yan Rusheng one last time before he left.

Yan Rusheng took out his phone and saw a text from Xuxu.

'Ah Sheng, did something happen?'

He recalled the phone call earlier on and how impatient he must have sounded.

He felt so thankful when he read the text.

'I'll be home right away.' He replied Xuxu.

And he proceeded to hasten his footsteps.

…

Xuxu finally received Yan Rusheng's reply and she heaved a sigh of relief. She put down her phone and instinctively rest her hands on her round belly and gently caressed it.

She stretched her hand to reach for a book which she had been reading recently. She began reading as she wanted to wait for Yan Rusheng to return home.
