บท 383: Use As a Weapon

"He said he'll take me home," said Raelle. "And I ended up following him."

For young Raelle, it was the first time someone hugged her like that. Since she never liked physical touch, even Grandfather Xiang and Mu Chenyan refrained from touching her too much. But they were her family. She wasn't that resistant to their touches.

But it was surprising how she was resistant to Hyson's hug as well. He was indeed a stranger. But he was the stranger who was willing to offer her a smile from his heart and give her a hug when she needed it. He was young and silly. He had no complicated thoughts. Everything was simple for him and he did whatever his heart told him to.

For a person like Raelle who followed her mind, someone like Hyson was unique and refreshing. He was like that sunshine on a cold winter day that could warm a person up.
