Han Junche didn't react to Zhang Xin's words. Ever since Chi Xia returned, he had just been quietly looking at her with his dark eyes.
Zhang Xin glanced at Han Junche, then at Chi Xia, and said with a smile, "Alright, I'll leave my brother-in-law to you. We'll head back now. Take good care of him; it's okay if you come back later."
She paused for a moment, then winked at Chi Xia knowingly, "Of course, it's okay if you don't come back."
After saying this, Zhang Xin pulled Ran Zhu away with a smile, leaving Chi Xia behind with a flushed face.
"Xiaxia".
Hearing this address, Chi Xia turned around in surprise, only to see Han Junche looking at her with his dark eyes, his cold face now full of grievance: "I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Chi Xia had seen Han Junche's cold and aloof demeanor, and she had also seen his arrogant and hypocritical side, but she had never seen him look at her with such a wronged expression.
Chi Xia's heart softened instantly. She stepped forward to his side, took his hand, and explained, "I just went to see Qin Zhao off. I came back right after I saw him off. I wasn't gone for long."
"No, you've been gone for a very, very long time."
Han Junche took her hand, pulled her into his arms with a slight tug, then released her hand, opened his arms, and hugged Chi Xia tightly.
He bent down, gently rested his head on Chi Xia's shoulder, buried his face in her neck and shoulder, and complained in a wronged voice, "No, you think I've been waiting for a long time. Those zombie bites hurt so much, but I endured it. I thought that when you came back and saw my wounds, you would feel sorry for me and would hold me like before. But I waited and waited, and I never saw you. Instead, I saw a busybody."
Chi Xia felt a pang of pain in her heart, as if her whole heart was being squeezed. She slowly reached out and hugged him, whispering, "I'm sorry."
"You've wronged me in so many ways."
Han Junche whispered in her ear, listing the things one by one: "You made Jerry call you Xiaxia, but you didn't give me a name that was special to you. You said you loved me, but you held Jerry's hand and slept next to him. You risked your life to protect Qin Zhao, but all you did was push me into the zombie horde. Just now, you even went to see Qin Zhao off, leaving me here all alone."
Han Junche recounted Chi Xia's crimes one by one, making Chi Xia feel increasingly guilty.
Especially the line that she risked her life to protect Qin Zhao, only to push him into a horde of zombies, made Chi Xia feel like she was a complete scumbag.
She said in a hoarse voice, "It won't happen again. I will protect you with my life."
"I don't need you to protect me." Han Junche said sullenly, "If we really encounter a life-or-death situation, I don't need you to protect me with your life, because I will protect you with my life. If pushing me into a horde of zombies can help you escape, I will go in myself without you pushing me."
Hearing this, Chi Xia fell silent.
She looked up at the darkness in the distance, then said softly, "I don't need you to risk your life to protect me. I won't push you into the zombie horde again, and I won't let you go on your own. If we really face a life-or-death situation, we'll live together and die together."
Han Junche's eyes lit up when he heard this. He released her, his dark eyes gleaming as he looked at her, and nodded firmly: "Yes, we'll live together, and we'll die together!"
Chi Xia nodded and held out her hand to him: "It's getting cold, let's go back."
"good."
Han Junche obediently extended his hand, which she grasped, and followed her slowly toward their residence.
His gaze remained fixed on her, clear and gentle, showing no sign of intoxication.
He asked softly, "So, you forgive me?"
