บท 416: Too Close

Xu Xiyan let Huo Yunshen sit on the couch as she went to fetch the first aid box.

"Give me your hands," Xu Xiyan said as she kneeled in front of him and looked at him with her head up. She could clearly see a hint of tears under Huo Yunshen's eyes.

Huo Yunshen tried to avoid his gaze. He was still wondering whether he was in a dream or not.

His heart was hit with mixed feelings, happy, sad, but the thing he wanted most at that moment was not to break the calmness that he was feeling.

Xu Xiyan took Huo Yunshen's hands and pulled them towards her.

His hands were covered in blood and shrapnel from the glass. She could feel her heart being stabbed once again.

What would he do if I wasn't here today… Would he just sit there and let himself bleed dry?

Xu Xiyan frowned and bit her lips. She took out a pair of tweezers and plucked the glass away gently.
