The pent-up frustration in his chest lingered, and he kept his eyes closed, his hand gripping his phone tightly.

The door was half-open, and footsteps in the corridor were clearly heard, approaching from afar, followed by a clear "Brother!"

Qi Shen opened his eyes and watched as the girl peeked in, her hands behind her back.

The boy's gaze was oppressive and unfathomable, and Fang Zhi swallowed nervously, "Zhi Zhi gave this to you."

The girl took out a piece of paper, her hands frozen in mid-air.

Qi Shen paused, the tense atmosphere around him dissipated slightly, and he spoke softly and slowly, "For me?"

"Yes, it was written by Zhizhi to her brother."

He didn't say anything. Duan Mofang took the paper after a few seconds and opened it. There was a line of childish writing. The handwriting was not beautiful but it was neat. You could tell that the writer had put a lot of effort into it.

Zhizhi likes Brother Qishen, Brother Qishen is so important!

Fang Zhi quietly observed the boy's delicate and handsome face, "There are some words that Zhi Zhi doesn't know how to write."

For example, she couldn't write the word "like," but luckily she remembered the English word for it. She also couldn't write "especially," so she could only use the word "good" instead.

"But Zhizhi had to learn her brother's name, so she even asked Wang Ma about it."

The girl's soft, sweet voice lingered in his ears, and Qi Shen stared at the words on it for a long time.

So she did it for him.

That was his intention, to make her only think of him.

The hunter sets the trap and makes preparations, but when the moment actually comes, the heart built with high walls collapses.

Qi Shen curled his lips into a genuine and unrestrained smile. "Do you like it?" Did she even know what "like" meant?

He and she looked into each other's eyes. The girl's clear and pure eyes reflected his face, and Qi Shen stared at the reflection in her eyes.

I brought her home on a whim, wanting to have a well-behaved pet that belonged only to me.

As for the future, he hadn't figured out what to do with her.

At that moment, he found the answer. A person as pure as paper painted the most vivid and unforgettable stroke for him.

Qi Shen lowered his eyes, suppressing the obsession in them.

She stayed by his side, and he waited for her. They had a long journey ahead of them, and they would be together until death do them part.
