"Xu Shang! It's good that you're fine! " Xia Zhi excitedly threw himself into his embrace, and his tears fell uncontrollably.

On the way here, her heart had been hanging in the air, afraid that Xu Shang would not be here. She was afraid that Xu Shang would not be able to escape for some reason, just like her.

After a long while, he finally let go of the Xia Zhi who was still short of breath and asked softly: "Where did you go last night? I just came back from the bathroom and I lost you. Do you know how scared I am? One moment I was worried that you had suddenly left because you wanted to talk to me about breaking up. The next moment I was worried that something had happened to you. You know, I was looking for you all night last night. I just got back from the police station five minutes ago. You really scared me to death! Tell me, where did you go? Is it because I did something that made you unhappy that you did such a thing to scare me? "

Looking at the dark green vegetables, the beef that emitted a pungent smell, and the bright red soup, Xia Zhi couldn't help but gulp down a few mouthfuls of saliva.

Xu Shang handed the chopsticks over to her and gently said, "Hurry up and eat it while it's hot. Have a good night's sleep after eating. "After you wake up, regardless of whether you have any leads or not, we have to go to the police station and call the police. We can't let those sinners get away with it!"

Xia Zhi immediately shook her head, "I think it's better not to. Those people looked like difficult characters to deal with. Who knows if there are any of them at the police station? I'll hide for a few days, and then I'll go back when everything is calm. If they can't find me, they'll be fine. "

Xu Shang nodded his head helplessly, "Your considerations are somewhat reasonable. All right. For the time being, we have to do this just to be on the safe side. "

Xia Zhi picked up the chopsticks and ate a mouthful of the noodles, and immediately raised her thumb at Xu Shang, "It smells so good! It was too delicious! Eat some too! "

As she spoke, she moved her face close to Xu Shang's mouth.

Xu Shang gently pushed the door open and lovingly stroked Xia Zhi's hair and said with a gentle smile, "Eat it yourself. I'll have another bowl later. Eat quickly, eat and sleep well. "

"Then I won't be polite." Xia Zhi's heart felt warm, and he no longer held back. He lowered his head and started to eat, and after a while, he finished eating the entire bowl of soup.

"Are you full? If it's not enough, I'll do a little more? " Xu Shang wiped the corner of his mouth lightly with a tissue.

"No. Enough. Delicious. "So full!" Xia Zhi leaned against Xu Shang's warm embrace and closed her eyes, lazily not moving at all. She only felt that she was a tired little boat that had been drifting for a long time, and he was a safe and beautiful harbor.

"I'll carry you to your room and have a good night's sleep." Xu Shang picked her up.

She grunted vaguely and did not open her eyes.

Xu Shang carried her to her room's bed and covered her with a blanket before sitting down beside her.

She quickly fell asleep, but her sleep was not quiet. From time to time, she would randomly clench her hands and feet, and her brows were tightly knitted as she muttered a few words.

Xu Shang couldn't hear what she said clearly, at this moment his gaze was fixated on the few stinging bruises on her wrist and ankle.

As if he was scalded, his hands suddenly moved away from Xia Zhi's hands and he quickly stood up to turn around. Sure enough, he saw Melinda leaning against the door as he coldly looked at him.

Xu Shang anxiously walked over and extended his hand to grab the red cashmere coat, "Why are you here?"

Melinda's sharp eyes swept across Xia Zhi's face and said coldly: "Why is she here? Xu Shang, did you not send her away at all? What? Are you still thinking about how nice she is to you? Since that's the case, then there's no need for us to get engaged anymore! "
