C295 – Rest Head on
“The physician was indeed fortunate.”
Shang Cijie whispered to himself.
Lacking knowledge of Mu Sifa’s words, he was uncertain how to proceed.
“Darling, come over here.”
Mu Sifa gestured for Shang Cijie to come closer with open arms.
Slightly bewildered, Shang Cijie approached nonetheless.
As soon as Shang Cijie was within his grasp, Mu Sifa embraced him, positioning him on his lap.
The intimacy with Mu Sifa caused Shang Cijie’s cheeks to flush immediately.
“You’re not too occupied?”
Shang Cijie inquired softly, his voice laced with bashfulness as he averted his gaze.
Despite the allure of his partner, Mu Sifa’s mind was elsewhere.
With their son missing, his thoughts were preoccupied with concern, leaving little room for anything else.
“Are you truly alright?”
Looking up, Shang Cijie addressed Mu Sifa, who neither met his gaze nor responded.
“Indeed, I am.”
Mu Sifa assured him with a serene smile.
“Smooth words, but only for you.”
Already shy, Shang Cijie’s embarrassment deepened with Mu Sifa’s remarks.
Blushing again? How endearing you are, my dear.
Mu Sifa’s nerves settled, finding tranquility.
Despite concerns for his son, being with Shang Cijie and awaiting updates was his current focus.
Mu Sifa embraced Shang Cijie, nestling against his waist.
Unsurprised, Shang Cijie tenderly stroked Mu Sifa’s hair, reminiscent of comforting Shang Mingming.
Mu Sifa, feeling amused, looked up, “Love, remember I am your partner, not your child.”
“Apologies, it was an instinctive gesture.”
Feeling mortified, Shang Cijie withdrew his hand quickly.
“Don’t worry; your reaction doesn’t upset me.”
Mu Sifa reassured, kissing Shang Cijie’s hand affectionately.
With a slight blush, Shang Cijie did not withdraw but allowed the kiss.
“Perhaps you’d like to rest your eyes a bit? You seem quite worn.”
Shang Cijie proposed gently, showing his caring nature.
“I’m alright as long as you’re by my side.”
They intertwined their fingers after the kiss, affirming their bond.
