Wang Xiao couldn't resist meeting Amelia's gaze, her eyelashes flickering with a hint of surprise, as he enveloped her in a warm embrace.

Startling her—Gently, he placed a tender kiss on her forehead. "Take care this time, and find me if you run into any trouble," he murmured softly, his voice laden with emotion.
"You don't need to take it all on yourself..." His words were as much a reassurance to himself as they were to her.

Amelia's eyes widened in astonishment, staring into the distance for a split second before her rigid features melted into a faint sweet smile.
