Listening to Fu Xiaoxiao's heartfelt words, Lu Feng's taut nerves finally began to relax. His Adam's apple bobbed as he tried to say something, but the rush of emotion stuck in his throat and he couldn't get a word out.
He reached out and pulled Fu Xiaoxiao tightly into his arms, resting his chin lightly on the top of her head, breathing in the faint soap scent in her hair. That familiar smell made him completely calm down.
"I'm so happy… no, I've never been this happy in my life." Lu Feng finally squeezed out a sentence, his voice carrying the relief of someone who'd survived a disaster.
Lu Feng slowly let go of Fu Xiaoxiao, his hands holding her shoulders as he looked at her, his eyes filled with tenderness.
"I was being stupid. You're right, there shouldn't be guessing between two people. I should've asked you directly." Lu Feng said, with a hint of guilt.
But the corners of his mouth couldn't help lifting as he broke into a smile.
