"After he was badly beaten by his dad, he came to my house to apologize. Once I recovered and went back to school, I never saw him again. I heard he went abroad for studies."
Mi Xiaotao looked up at Lu Shaoqing, asking pitifully, "Brother Lu, am I useless? Even a worm can leave a psychological shadow on me."
Lu Shaoqing comforted her, "No, Xiaotao, it's quite normal for girls to be afraid of these things! I don't need you to pretend to be strong."
"Thank you, Brother Lu!"
Mi Xiaotao reached out to hold Lu Shaoqing's waist, pressing her face against his chest, listening to the beat of his heart.
"Silly girl, we are husband and wife; of course, I should care for you!"
Lu Shaoqing raised his hand and stroked her hair, "Go to sleep. Tomorrow I'll ask Wang Xinyuan to give you a day off so you can rest well in the apartment!"
Mi Xiaotao did not want to argue anymore, she nodded obediently and said, "Okay!"
