Meeting Xin Yu again—A Hostile Mixed-Blood Beauty

At the rehabilitation center of a famous hospital in Beijing, Qin Ruo saw Xin Yu's mother waiting by the entrance once he alighted, with a cute young girl wearing a beanie that covered her entire head standing beside her. When she quickly darted to him when she caught sight of him, who else could she be other than Xin Yu, who was recovering after her surgery?

"Brother Qin!" Xin Yu exclaimed as she ran to him, a sight that conjured memories of the happy, worry-free girl she was when Qin Ruo was first acquainted with her.

Putting down the luggage in hand, he smiled and spread his arms, the pair sharing a tight hug.

"It's been such a long time—I thought you forgot about me."

"Been busy," Qin Ruo explained, grinning as they parted, "Didn't I expressly apply leave to come?"
