"Ye Lei, you're back."
Liu Sisi tried to smile and struggled to get up from the head of the bed.
"Don't move! Your body is still weak. It'd be better to lie in bed and recuperate."
Di Yelei's face was full of concern. This young woman never knew how to take care of her body, always pushing herself to the point of exhaustion, which made him ache to watch.
"Really, you always happen to see me at my worst."
Liu Sisi obediently leaned into Di Yelei's arms, and, surrounded by his familiar aura, she couldn't help lifting the corners of her mouth, feeling a comforting peace in her heart.
Di Yelei's iron arms suddenly tightened, and his breath was incredibly heavy, "But I am especially grateful, grateful that when you are most vulnerable and need me the most, I am fortunate enough to be by your side and spend these most difficult days together…"
His heart couldn't help recalling the past days when Liu Sisi was alone and suffering in her darkest times.
