After several storms, Huang Wan'er was utterly exhausted, lying curled up in Chen Jie's arms, looking pitiful everywhere, like a homeless kitten.
Her fingers traced the bite mark on Chen Jie's shoulder, and she said, feeling heartache: "Does it hurt?"
Chen Jie replied: "It hurts."
"I bit too lightly."
Huang Wan'er said: "What's this pain compared to the time I gave birth to Bean; I almost thought I was going to die."
"That kind of despair is the real pain."
Hearing that, Chen Jie looked at Huang Wan'er and said: "Wan'er."
"You've suffered."
Upon hearing this, Huang Wan'er held Chen Jie and said: "It's all in the past..."
"As long as you treat the two of us well in the future, that's enough."
Huang Wan'er hugged Chen Jie tighter, and Chen Jie turned to hold Huang Wan'er, saying: "Don't worry, I will never let the two of you down."
After Chen Jie said that, he realized Huang Wan'er was silent.
Then he felt her steady breathing, in and out...
Asleep.
