I hope nothing goes wrong in the end.
The drive home from AURORA was quiet, but it was no longer the cold, agonizing silence of the few weeks without Yichen. This was comfortable, filled with the soft sound of Mo Yichen's relentless pursuit on his keyboard, his breathing beside me as I leaned into him.
Plus, the beautiful part, the weight of his hand resting on my knee.
He was getting used to it. I stared out the window at the blurred city lights, my mind replaying the day. Lin Jun's funny respect, trying to hold himself in when Yichen glared at him.
Qiao Mei's excitement... it all felt warm, like I truly had a family now, unlike before, when I had no one to rely on except the duty my father had placed on me.
My mind drifted to Zhen Rui once again when I caught her laughing and talking to someone, and a frown graced my lips once again.
"Stop thinking about her."
