Around 6 pm, Qiao Yu came back.
As soon as he entered, he saw Xia Ning and Gao Wanhua sitting on the sofa and talking.
Xia Ning was holding a magazine and introducing something to Gao Wanhua. Her face was full of smiles, and even Gao Wanhua, who was sitting beside her, was infected by her smile.
Because she was at home, the house was much more lively. To be more precise, it was more like a home because there was warmth.
“Mom, this design suits you. You have good skin, so you look good in this color.” Xia Ning smiled and pointed to a summer dress on a magazine to recommend to Gao Wanhua. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of a dark figure at the door. She looked up and saw Qiao sa standing there.
Qiao Yu looked back at her, his eyes filled with warmth.
Gao Wanhua noticed Xia Ning’s strange expression and glanced at her, following her line of sight. She immediately understood and stood up with a smile.””You’re back. I’ve asked mother Wang to prepare dinner. ”
Qiao ran nodded.”Yes.” As he spoke, he walked in.
Xia Ning stood up and looked at him. She smiled and said, “I’m back. ” She clenched her fists tightly. Although they were still together yesterday, it was still a wonderful feeling to appear in his house and face him today.
“Yes.” Qiao Yu looked at her,”when did you come back?”
“He came in the afternoon.” Xia Ning replied.
Qiao ran nodded and did not say anything else. His dark eyes were like a Black Vortex that wrapped around her. After more than two months of separation, she had finally returned in one piece today.
Xia Ning felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze and averted her gaze.
Seeing her escape his gaze, Qiao Yu couldn’t help but smile. Yes, no matter how mysterious she was, no matter how much she liked to be independent, there was one thing that had never changed. It was the shyness of a woman in the face of love.
“Xia Ning, go and wake Enoch up for dinner.” Gao Wanhua’s voice suddenly came from the living room.
“Alright,” Xia Ning replied, snapping back to her senses.
“Enoch is sleeping upstairs?” Qiao Yu’s voice followed, his voice soft and gentle.
“Yes, he fell asleep very late in the afternoon, so I didn’t wake him up. I’ll go and wake him up now.” Xia Ning walked towards the stairs after she finished speaking.
Qiao Yu carried his briefcase and followed her upstairs.
Xia Ning turned on the lights in the corridor and went straight to the side bedroom.
As soon as she reached the door, Xia Ning’s hand fell on the doorknob and she was about to push the door open when suddenly, something pressed against her back. The next moment, a pair of arms wrapped around her waist and something pressed down on her neck. Her warm breath hit her and a familiar scent rushed into her nose. She took a deep breath and her heart was suddenly filled with something.
Qiao Yu buried his head in Xia Ning’s neck and gave her a kiss. He then whispered in her ear,”I’m very happy.” He was very happy that she was back. With her by his side, the empty feeling in his heart from before disappeared in an instant.
Xia Ning looked at the door in front of her and retracted her hand. A smile appeared on her face.”I’m happy too.” She was very happy to be with them. Enoch, her mother, and him. They all made her feel that her life was full of infinite possibilities.
“Qiao Yu, sometimes we’re like kids, we have our own stubbornness.” Xia Ning chuckled and said helplessly,”we’re all proud people. It’s not like we can’t live without someone. However, if we don’t have someone who makes us an exception, our lives are destined to be boring.” Then, she turned around and looked at the man in front of her.
Qiao Yu looked at Xia Ning, his dark eyes filled with gentleness,”I’m very lucky, you’re the one who made an exception for me.”
