Princess is Glamorous in Modern Day

Chapter 80: Hug

Xia Wanyuan's body stiffened as she stayed in Jun Shiling's arms. She didn't know where to put her hands.

"Xiao Bao is asleep. He seems to have gained some weight." Xia Wanyuan did not say anything to comfort Jun Shiling directly, but inadvertently mentioned the sleeping Xiao Bao.

Jun Shiling's grip on Xia Wanyuan's shoulders tightened.

"Mm." Jun Shiling responded softly, and Xia Wanyuan didn't say anything more.

But Jun Shiling already understood what Xia Wanyuan meant. The dead were already gone, so there was no need to miss them too much.

The faint fragrance of Xia Wanyuan wafted over. Jun Shiling's eyes surged when he saw Xia Wanyuan's bright red earlobe.

"Are you feeling better?" Being hugged like this, Xia Wanyuan's body stiffened unnaturally as she stretched slightly.

"Mm." Sensing Xia Wanyuan's struggles, Jun Shiling let go of her. His hair brushed across his palm, and a huge sense of loss surged from his heart.

"If you're in a bad mood, stay here for a while more."

When Xia Wanyuan was unhappy, she did not like to go to bright and spacious places either. Instead, she stayed in a space with no one else around and allowed her thoughts to wander.

"Stay with me."

"Huh? Okay." For some reason, Jun Shiling, who had just asked Xia Wanyuan to accompany him, actually looked a little lonely. Xia Wanyuan's heart softened.

Although he said that he wanted Xia Wanyuan to accompany him, Jun Shiling did not speak further. Xia Wanyuan also stayed quiet and did not disturb him.

Time passed second by second. It was quiet in the car, but it was different from the silence just now. At this moment, Jun Shiling only felt relieved and not as lonely as before.

Jun Shiling closed his eyes to rest for a while. After drinking a bowl of hot soup and Xia Wanyuan's invisible comfort, he already felt much more relaxed.

He opened his eyes and was about to call Xia Wanyuan to go back when he realized that she had fallen asleep on the sofa.

Xia Wanyuan was sound asleep. In her sleep, she felt as if she was on a ship that was cruising very smoothly. However, she kept feeling as if there was a heat source leaning on her. Xia Wanyuan reached out to touch it, but the ship suddenly stopped.

Xia Wanyuan opened her eyes slowly and saw the familiar line of his jaw.

"Why am I-" Xia Wanyuan did not finish her sentence. 'Why am I in your arms?'

Jun Shiling lowered his head and glanced at Xia Wanyuan. "It's not like I haven't carried you before."

Previously, Xia Wanyuan had sprained her ankle and it was inconvenient for her to move. Most of the time, Jun Shiling carried her up and down.

An embarrassed look flashed across Xia Wanyuan's eyes.

Since they were about to go upstairs, Jun Shiling did not let go and carried Xia Wanyuan back to the bedroom.

The little dumpling was sound asleep. Even though he was mischievous when he was awake, he was incredibly obedient once he fell asleep. He obediently placed his hands by his sides and slept upright, as though he had inherited Jun Shiling's self-discipline.

After placing Xia Wanyuan on the bed, Jun Shiling pulled the blanket over her and covered her with it. He glanced at Xiao Bao, who was snoring, and Xia Wanyuan, who was blinking her eyelashes. The gloominess on Jun Shiling seemed to have disappeared at this moment.
