Yet he still put Qiong Xing and the baby first and always worrying about them.
To be honest, deep in a corner of his heart, Qiong Xing had been thinking about something.
He had wondered if Leander might secretly resent this child, because the baby wasn't his.
Even though Leander always respected Qiong Xing's decisions, beastmen were known to love deeply and strongly.
Just like how Leander sometimes argued with Elias, Qiong Xing had wondered if Leander might truly dislike the child.
But now he realized how foolish that thought had been.
Leander loved him.
And he cared about the child too.
Qiong Xing held back his tears.
When Leander leaned closer in concern, Qiong Xing suddenly pulled him into an embrace and kissed him.
He moved his tongue slowly and trying to express what words alone could not.
Thank you.
I love you.
Leander looked surprised at first, but then he happily returned the kiss.
"Mm… what's wrong?" Leander asked softly.
