Chapter 58 Sudden Change

  A moment later, Xue Luo felt the person at the other end turn over, and then, in a daze, his large palm had already wrapped around her body, holding her tightly in his arms.

  She struggled slightly, but he held her tight, wrapping his arms around her from behind. She could feel the warmth of his body and the strong beat of his heart, and her own heartbeat seemed to slow down to match his. She was uncomfortable with this position, as if she had been completely embedded in his body, losing all autonomy, yet feeling utterly safe.

  He simply held her, one hand under her neck and the other around her waist, without any movement, and she didn't dare to move either, just staring at the pitch black room with wide eyes, then heard the heavy breathing sound from the person behind him, he actually... fell asleep?

  She didn't know when she fell asleep, and slept so soundly in his arms. The next day when she woke up, the outside was already sunny, and there was no one beside her.

  When the snow fell, Snow White jumped over and licked her legs eagerly. Zhen Jie saw her and hurriedly greeted: "Madam, you're up? Breakfast is ready, go eat quickly..."

  It was almost noon, and Snow felt a bit awkward, hurriedly responding: "Oh... I got up late today..."

  "It's not late, it's just that the young master instructed us not to disturb you..." Zhen Jie had a smile on her face, didn't say anything else, but just mentioning the two words "young master" made Xue Lai's face turn bright red.

  "Uh... where's Young Master?" she asked softly.

  "Master, he's gone to work early in the morning..." Zhen Jie said, and then brought out a bowl from the kitchen and placed it in front of Xue Luo, "Madam, this is red date bird's nest soup, just right for drinking now..."

  "I... I didn't say I wanted to eat this..." Xue Luo stared at the bird's nest in front of her, perplexed.

  "Master said that he wants to give you some nourishment for your body..." Zhen Jie was laughing with joy, calling him "master" repeatedly, her eyes narrowed into slits.

  Snow fell and reddened a face, what is he doing? Suddenly changed his nature and appearance? She stared at the red dates and bird's nest in front of her, not knowing what taste was in her heart.

  In the evening, she walked back with Bai Xue. Zhen Jie saw her and said: "Madam, Young Master just called and said he won't be coming back tonight..."

  It's snowing heavily outside, isn't it normal for him not to come back? He appears for a day and then disappears for several days, isn't that just like him? Why bother calling her again?

  "Oh..." The snow fell in response, gazing at the snowy white in front of her, smiling faintly. "Xue Bai, what's going on with him? Do we need to be told about this too? Didn't you always keep it from us before?" She muttered, but Xue Bai just stared back at her with his dark eyes.

  The next day, he still didn't come back.

  On the third day, Xue received a call from Juan, asking when she would return to California. She hesitated, wondering if she should tell him or get his approval first.

  She was hesitant at home for half a day, still couldn't decide whether to call him or not. Would he think she's just making an excuse to call him? Hmm... maybe she's overthinking it, she didn't have that intention in the first place, did she? But in the end, she still didn't make the call, might as well wait till tomorrow to see what happens.

  As a result, just as she was about to take Snow White out for a walk, Cang Mu returned.
