Chapter 54: Yes!

"Honey! We're home!"

I placed my dish back in the sink and wiped my hands on the dishtowel beside me. "Welcome home!" I called out as I watched Bai Long Qiang strolling into the house, a bunch of men behind him.

They all looked freshly showered, but I could see the bags under their eyes.

My hands dried, I headed toward Bai Long Qiang.

He opened his arms, and I fell into them, finally feeling like I was home. "Any injuries?" I asked, leaning back and examining him from top to bottom. He seemed fine, but I knew he could hide it well.

"We're all in one piece," replied Bai Long Qiang as he stroked the side of my face with his hand. I leaned into his warmth and closed my eyes.

"I'm glad," I said softly. It wasn't exactly what I wanted to say. I wanted to demand that he show me everything so that I could see for myself that he was okay. I wanted to ask about Cheng Bo Jing. I needed to know that he was okay, too, but I just kept my mouth closed.
