章 79: Expansion Ventures.

Hao Ren reached home, and Han Lingshi accompanied him, trying to lift up his spirits. The two of them had just entered the house, when Hao Ren bent down to help her with her shoes and suddenly, held her in his embrace. 

Han Lingshi was surprised, but then she gradually relaxed. Hao Ren could feel her effort trying to make him happy and distract him by changing the topic. The young man inhaled the soft fragrance coming off of her and said, "Thank You, Lingshi." 

The lady was also holding him in her arms, she was surprised by the carved muscles that hid under the clothes, but said, "Uhm, mention not. This is what we should do for each other." 

The two of them had learned to lean on each other in times of need. They were only humans after all, they could not shoulder everything alone, however, this vulnerability they had was oddly limited to each other only.
