Upon hearing the promise given by Chen Ye, Bai Susu's eyes, which had been brimming with tears, finally let those tears roll down her pale cheeks.
"It's wonderful... I knew you could come back, and you surely could bring him back..."
Bai Susu couldn't care less about keeping her composure, throwing herself into Chen Ye's embrace, wrapping her arms around his waist, burying her face in his chest, her voice choking.
"Silly girl, I promised I'd return safely, and I never go back on my word. True Man Bai is in the Quiet Chamber, cocooned in rebirth, everything is moving in the best direction. If you're still worried, calm down a bit later, I'll take you to see him."
Chen Ye gently patted her back, soothing her with a gentle voice.
"Mm..."
Bai Susu snuggled a bit in Chen Ye's embrace, responding with a heavy nasal tone, showing a rare side of obedient fragility.
Having survived a life-and-death struggle, to be able to bring peace to the person in his arms at this moment.
