What should Su Qing do if she can't find her when she gets home?
Mahiru believed she couldn't be so selfish.
Just wait a little longer.
Mahiru stopped staring intently at her phone.
She slowly looked away, then took a deep breath, as if to expel the tension and worry in her heart with that breath.
Then, she gently closed her eyes, her slender fingers unconsciously interlocking tightly, her knuckles turning slightly white from the force.
—Mahiru originally did not believe in the existence of gods.
As a child, she prayed countless times in the dead of night.
But when the morning light shattered in that fractured home, she awoke as if from a dream to realize that it was all just people's imagination.
but--
If there really are such things as "gods".
"Please. Please make sure that Qingjun returns safely."
The girl's sincere and devout prayer drifted gently through the silent space, where one could almost hear their own heartbeat.
……
?
"Clang."
When the familiar sound of the door opening broke the silence, Mahiru immediately stood up excitedly.
It must be Su Qing who's back!
In that instant, an overwhelming longing, like a surging tide, instantly consumed Mahiru's entire being.
She was extremely anxious and hurried along.
Without even putting on the indoor shoes that were placed aside, she rushed towards the entrance.
The cushion that she had been holding tightly in her arms, regarding it as a source of comfort, was also left behind on the sofa in the rush, sitting there all alone, as if still retaining the warmth of its owner when she left.
"Welcome back!"
At the entrance.
Before Su Qing could even see Zhen Zhou, the sound of her obviously hurried footsteps and shouts reached his ears.
When he raised his eyes again, a girl as beautiful as a gardenia suddenly appeared in his world.
The girl was supporting herself on her knees, breathing slightly heavily.
Her fair cheeks were flushed with a faint blush from the run, and a few strands of hair fell loosely beside her face.
But his eyes sparkled with joy that he couldn't hide no matter what.
The moment Mahiru saw Su Qing with her own eyes, the lingering gloom in her chest vanished instantly.
The heart that was missing a piece was finally filled in an instant.
The two looked at each other.
Silent.
Time seemed to stand still.
After a while.
Mahiru slightly raised her hand and gently brushed aside the few strands of hair that fell across her cheek.
Then, a sweet smile bloomed on her lips, and her voice was as gentle as water as she softly said again:
"Welcome home."
Almost as soon as he finished speaking.
That familiar scent, so all the more so to Mahiru, had already quietly enveloped the tip of her nose.
Followed by.
An unprecedented force suddenly bound her tightly.
—Su Qing hugged her tighter than ever before.
The immense impact even made Mahiru feel a slight pressure in her chest, but she did not resist. Instead, she wrapped her arms around Su Qing's back and hugged him back even more tightly.
Mahiru vaguely sensed something, but before Su Qing spoke, she preferred to accompany him in this silent way.
—This was just what Su Qing did for her on that night when the power went out.
Su Qing wasn't unwilling to speak.
He wanted to say something.
The sheer volume of concrete love is enough to leave one speechless.
The two embraced tightly in the narrow entryway, freely expressing their longing for each other, as if they were holding the whole world in their arms.
After a long time.
Su Qingcai whispered in Zhenhou's ear in a hoarse voice:
"I'm back."
……
……
PS: Sorry, something really came up, so I'll just post one chapter for now.
Chapter 257 If life were just like the first time we met
?
Su Qing's gentle voice always made Mahiru feel at ease.
She raised her eyes and smiled gently:
"Are you thirsty? Go get some water before we eat."
"Hmm... but I don't know if the food is cold. Should I reheat it?"
Mahiru then added another sentence to herself.
Are your feet cold?
Su Qing's concern interrupted her thoughts.
She paused for a moment, then subconsciously looked down at her feet.
—She wasn't wearing indoor slippers.
Furthermore, because she changed into long pants, Mahiru's signature pantyhose were also removed.
So at this point, her feet were in direct contact with the somewhat cold floor.
At first, she didn't feel anything, but after Su Qing reminded her, she felt a continuous chill coming from below.
Even the soft, lovely toes, as smooth as pearls, couldn't help but curl up a few times.
"There is a little... but it's okay."
Mahiru raised her face as if to say something, but the next moment she felt a sudden dizziness and a feeling of weightlessness that made her uneasy.
"ah!?"
Mahiru frantically squeezed her eyes shut and let out a soft cry.
His hands instinctively searched for anything nearby to lean on.
When the feeling of weightlessness fades, it is replaced by a comforting sense of ease.
Mahiru tentatively opened her eyes, but she still didn't understand what was going on.
Eh hey hey?
In the end what happened?
"Don't move around. If you're afraid of falling, wrap your arms around my neck."
Su Qing didn't even ask Mahiru's consent before making the decision on her own.
"oh oh.."
Mahiru realized what was happening, nodded, and responded softly.
But she already had a bold guess in her mind.
No.
It should be said to be true.
—She was carried in a princess carry by Su Qing!
Mahiru tilted her head slightly, and Su Qing's figure was reflected in her bright, starry eyes.
From then on, the stars were no longer alone.
Subsequently.
Mahiru naturally wrapped her arms around him, her delicate body pressed tightly against Su Qing's firm chest.
She could feel his strong heartbeat and warm body temperature.
Her long, flaxen hair cascaded down like a waterfall, gently brushing against Su Qing's arm and leaving a faint fragrance.
step.
Two steps.
The two of them tacitly fell silent, and time slipped through their fingers, but no one noticed.
Mahiru looked up and quietly gazed at Su Qing.
Her gaze slowly moved upwards, as if a climber mustered all her courage to challenge the world-famous Mount Everest.
It goes past the collarbone, over the Adam's apple, up to the thin lips, and up to the tip of the nose.
Until I reached the summit, met by those dark eyes.
this moment.
Two pairs of eyes, identical yet different, spanning time and space, constantly overlap in the world of true daylight.
But they could never quite match.
If only life could be like the first time we met...
Why does the autumn wind bring sorrow to the painted fan?
His dark eyes were just like the rain curtain when we first met.
It remains as vast and dazzling as the Milky Way.
But at this moment, there was a touch more.
--deep feeling.
Mahiru was completely absorbed in watching it, mesmerized.
Absurd thoughts began to grow and spread in my mind.
—Su Qing seemed to be closer to her now.
wrong.
Not as if.
Yes.
Mahiru had never felt so close to Su Qing before.
It doesn't refer to distance.
They've hugged each other several times already.
Therefore, it should be something that cannot be seen or touched, but which truly exists.
