She hugged onto him tightly, fearing that he would disappear if she let go.
Li Lei patted her gently on the back and said, "Don't worry, Xiao Ling. I'm here, aren't I? You've suffered in this period that I was gone."
The tears that she had managed to hold back started to fall uncontrollably.
He lovingly caressed her face. "Crying like a little kitten."
Her tears fell even quicker, and she choked through her tears. "You finally came to find me! Do you know how much I've missed you?! I was so afraid, so worried…" She was worried about his injury, fearing that he was not doing as well as Chu Chen and Sister Mai Na had made it out to be. She could not sleep well if she did not see how he was doing for herself.
