Su Ze pressed down on his temple tiredly, a smile on his face continuously surfaced in his mind.

The man who had just been overweeningly arrogant was now as weak and helpless as a child.

Ling Chen brought Zhang Xiao Xiao back to their home, the familiar arrangement, the familiar smell.

So gentle, so affectionate.

"Mm, I'm not afraid." Zhang Xiao Xiao lowered his eyes to cover the fear in his heart.

"Ai, you!" Ling Chen sighed lightly, and pulled Zhang Xiao Xiao upstairs.

The long-legged man pulled the delicate little girl, purposely slowing his footsteps to match Zhang Xiao Xiao's speed. This meticulous action finally allowed Zhang Xiao Xiao to put down the boulder in his heart.

She was back, she really was back, she had returned to Ling Chen's side.

Returning from a loss, Ling Chen's heart was far less calm than it appeared to be.

However, he had always known how to hide his emotions. After all, a mature man in his twenties wasn't as reckless as when he was young. Even though he had received no less of a shock in this disaster than Zhang Xiao Xiao did.

After putting away the bath water and adjusting the temperature of the water, Ling Chen took out a set of clothes from the closet and stuffed it into the puppet-like girl's hands.

"Go take a bath." The voice was gentle, with an irresistible charm.

Zhang Xiao Xiao entered the bathroom in a daze.

When she changed her clothes, her face immediately turned red.

The black lace undergarment suddenly appeared in front of her. She didn't forget that it was Ling Chen who passed the clothes to her.

The shyness diluted the fear of disaster.

When Zhang Xiao Xiao went downstairs, the crisp sound of vegetables being cut resounded from the kitchen.

He was a man in his twenties, with a successful career and an impeccable appearance. Who would have thought that he would be willing to cook for a little girl?

Zhang Xiao Xiao's nose stung, and seeing the tall and stern man surrounding the little yellow man's apron, with a serious expression on his face as he cut vegetables, he could no longer hold back the longing and feelings in his heart, and rushed forward to hug Ling Chen tightly.

Sensing the love and reliance in the little girl's embrace, Ling Chen smiled in a good mood.

"What, do you find me especially handsome?" A deep yet magnetic voice came out steadily into Zhang Xiao Xiao's ears.

"Yes." Not denying, Zhang Xiao Xiao answered with a red face.

In the days she was overseas, her yearning for Ling Chen had almost reached its peak.

Seeing that the little girl was so scared, Ling Chen sighed in his heart and his actions became more gentle.

As if he was carrying a huge koala, Ling Chen allowed Zhang Xiao Xiao to hug him throughout the entire process, moving while he washed the vegetables and cut the vegetables.

"Xiao Xiao, let go first. He didn't speak gently until they started cooking.

"I don't." Zhang Xiao Xiao used a bit more strength in his hands, burying his head on Ling Chen's back, he denied it in a muffled voice.

"Fine, you can just lie on the ground if you want to. However, don't blame me if you get burnt by the oil later." Ling Chen pretended to sigh helplessly, but his left hand held the lid of the wok in front of Zhang Xiao Xiao's fair hands.

This way, he could prevent the oily stars from splattering onto Xiao Xiao's body.

After all the dishes were prepared, Zhang Xiao Xiao reluctantly let go of Ling Chen's hand.

"Ling Chen, I missed you so much." Seeing the table full of talented people that he liked to eat, Zhang Xiao Xiao could not help but cry.

Ling Chen had never coaxed a child, and had also never coaxed a little girl, the intelligent him was a retard when it came to love. Seeing that, he took the opportunity to embrace Zhang Xiao Xiao in his arms, but did not know what to say.

"Good girl, I'm here." He gently patted Zhang Xiao Xiao's back.

Zhang Xiao Xiao cried even louder, her face flushed red with grievance.

She was afraid, she was worried, and even grumbled a little, complaining that Ling Chen had abandoned her in that foreign land, leaving her with not a single hope.

After realising that something was wrong, Ling Chen completely panicked in his heart.

"Xiao Xiao, don't cry, what grievances have you suffered? Did Su Ze bully you? Just you wait, I won't let him off! " Ling Chen helped Zhang Xiao Xiao wipe away the tears on his face.

"Ling Chen, it's been almost a month, why have you only come to my rescue now?!" Zhang Xiao Xiao finally could not hold back the grievance and tears in his heart.

He originally thought that Ling Chen would definitely think of a way to save him in Italy, but he didn't expect that it was only now that he was preparing to go abroad. From that moment onwards, Zhang Xiao Xiao hid his disappointment in his heart.

After such a thing, it was extremely sensitive and easy to overthink.

"Xiao Xiao, who said I would only come looking for you now? What a silly girl, how could I not be worried when something happened to you? It's just that I'm not very familiar with the Italy side, and found you after much difficulty from Su Ze, he was also not willing to let you go, so I had no choice but to think of returning back home to look for reinforcements. "

Ling Chen was angry but at the same time, he was amused. He never thought that the little girl would hate him because of such a thing.

"You came to Italy, and found Su Ze? How come I didn't know? " Zhang Xiao Xiao raised his head in shock. There were still undried tears on his face.

Ling Chen understood that Su Ze had never told her about him going to find Xiao Xiao.

"Yes, about a week ago, I just found out that you were sent to Su Ze's place by the Yang father and son. When I broke into Su Ze's villa, I didn't see you, and was kicked out in the end." Ling Chen was a little wronged when he said it.

Thinking about how the cold-faced Evil God was blasted out of the villa by Su Ze, Zhang Xiao Xiao's tears turned into smiles.

What an honor it was for her to have a knight who truly loved her.

"You're done? Good boy, did Su Ze bully you? " Ling Chen held onto Zhang Xiao Xiao's hand, and thought about what Su Ze had said that day. White dress, lace. He was not afraid that Xiao Xiao's body would be contaminated, he was afraid that she would suffer, and he was afraid that her heart would be clouded.

"No, don't worry, Su Ze is much stronger than Yang Hao and the rest." Zhang Xiao Xiao subconsciously took sides when he mentioned Su Ze.

Ling Chen's eyes flashed. He naturally heard the protection in those words, but didn't say anything.

It was good that Xiao Xiao was fine.

"Should I take you out for a walk in the afternoon?" After dinner, Ling Chen was in a good mood as he invited everyone to dinner.

In order to save Zhang Xiao Xiao, he spent the entire night last night dealing with all the recent urgent matters.

"What street? I'm so tired, I want to sleep." Zhang Xiao Xiao pretended to complain.
