Chapter 712: 712, Injury, Accident
Shi Yuhuan called out to her from outside to open the window. Because of the soundproofing, she could only make out what he was saying by lip reading.
Feeling a sudden rush of intensity in her heart, Song Qinghuan immediately opened the floor-to-ceiling window.
As soon as Shi Yuhuan entered the room, she threw herself into his arms, but her pregnant belly got in the way, so she could only lean sideways to encircle his waist.
Sensing her rush, Shi Yuhuan quickly embraced her, afraid she might trip and fall.
As Song Qinghuan looked up at him, a surge of hot tears welled up in her eyes, as she choked out, “Shi Yuhuan…how did you come?”
She was utterly surprised. It was beyond her wildest expectations that he would suddenly turn up like this in the wee hours.
Song Qinghuan felt dazed and overwhelmed, as if in a dream. Once she confirmed his arrival, she wanted nothing more than to hold onto him tightly and never let go.
All her anger vanished, replaced by a tangle of excitement and happiness. With hot tears rolling down her cheeks, her face burrowed into his chest.
Holding Song Qinghuan eased Shi Yuhuan’s fatigue from the long journey and his anxious heart gradually relaxed.
His usually deep and stern gaze instantly softened and warmed.
Leaning in, he murmured into her hair, his voice deep and husky, “It’s chilly outside, let me shut the window first.”
At his words, Song Qinghuan gently let go of him.
Once he closed the window, she immediately pulled him to sit beside her on the bed, her gaze full of affection.
Shi Yuhuan gazed back at her warmly, gently kissing her forehead with the sweetness of fairy floss. 𝓃𝓸𝓿𝓹𝓾𝓫.𝓬ℴ𝓶
“Why did you suddenly come?” Song Qinghuan asked softly.
“Didn’t you ask me to visit? I promised I would, so of course, I had to find time for it. Thankfully, I was free this evening, although, I can only stay for two hours…” Shi Yuhuan responded lightly.
Song Qinghuan cut him off, surprised, “You traveled all this distance just to stay for two hours?”
Shi Yuhuan merely nodded, then rested his forehead against hers, murmuring, “Yes, only two hours. I have to leave by five a.m.”
Song Qinghuan was taken aback and began to feel guilty.
Was it because she was upset and had hung up on him, that he had rushed over in the middle of the night just to soothe her?
Caught with this realization, a sour pang hit her heart. While looking at him, an anomaly on his forehead caught her attention.
Instinctively, she reached up to touch his forehead.
However, Shi Yuhuan swiftly turned his head to dodge her touch.
Nevertheless, Song Qinghuan managed to brush away his fringe and saw a bruise and a slight trace of blood on his forehead.
“Shi Yuhuan, what happened…” her voice trembled, likewise, her hand.
She tried to touch him again, but Shi Yuhuan gently caught her hand.
He looked at her, his eyes calm and collected, and reassured her nonchalantly, “It’s a minor accident. Don’t worry.”
“A minor accident? What kind of minor accident leads to an injury? What happened…” Song Qinghuan trailed off, her voice shaking, “Let me see, is it serious?”
From that brief glimpse, she inferred it wasn’t caused by an accidental bump, but looked more like an injury from a fight.
Pressing his forehead against hers, Shi Yuhuan met her worried gaze with his own and softly assured her, “It’s not serious, it’s already healing.”
