Ziyi suddenly panicked: "Where are you going?"
The man kept walking: "To help you find him, so he can come back and marry you."
"You're not allowed to leave!" Ziyi hurriedly jumped off the vanity.
The moment her feet touched the ground, she was immediately embraced by the returning man.
The familiar scent made her shed tears once again.
She wrapped her arms around his neck, her voice tinged with sobs, soft as ever: "Uncle Xiaobao, please don't go..."
Pei Yuanchen was slightly shaken.
He held her tightly, his burning kisses landing on her cheeks, his voice low and slightly hoarse: "Okay, I won't leave."

Ayuan snorted heavily.
The man turned his head upon hearing the noise, and his surprise was evident: "Ayuan?"
