Chapter 270: Today Is My Mom’s Death Anniversary

When Quan Jue reached home, he had just walked into the living room when he saw Chi Jiao asleep on the sofa.

The light from the living room shone on her petite face, making her sleeping appearance even more obedient and adorable.

Quan Jue couldn’t help but soften his breathing before taking lighter steps as he carefully approached her.

But even though he didn’t make a sound, the girl lying on the sofa still opened her eyes.

Her big eyes were filled with confusion as she looked at him standing beside the sofa.

The moment she saw who it was, her eyes brightened as if they were filled with stars.

“Brother Quan, you’re back.”

Quan Jue felt that the house was too quiet today. He nodded and asked, “Where’s everyone else?”

“Daddy is on a business trip. He won’t be back for a few days.” Chi Jiao rubbed her eyes and looked at him. “Brother Quan, I have something I want to talk to you about.”

Quan Jue sat down beside her and looked at her.

“There are still ten days before the new year. I want to return to Mount Li for the new year. Will you accompany me?” Chi Jiao asked softly.

She had read the letter her god grandfather had sent her, and the main contents of the letter had been to tell her that she had to return to Mount Li for the new year.

She had previously promised her god grandfather and god grandmother that she would definitely go back for the New Year.

“Do you want me to go back with you?” Quan Jue looked deeply at her and asked in return.

Chi Jiao nodded and said, “My god grandfather and god grandmother heard my brothers talking about you and want to see you, too.”

Quan Jue gently placed his face close to hers and smiled. “Okay.”

Chi Jiao didn’t expect him to agree so quickly. She excitedly kissed him on the cheek. “Brother Quan, you’re really too good!”

Quan Jue looked at her. The girl’s smile was as bright and adorable as a ball of scorching light. It reflected in his heart, engraved in his soul, and soothed all the darkness in his heart.

He pulled Chi Jiao into his arms and hugged her with a lot of strength as if he wanted to embed her into his soul.

“You won’t leave me, right?” Quan Jue asked softly as he buried his face in her neck.

Chi Jiao could barely breathe due to his hug, but she still obediently remained still. She said in a firm and immovable tone, “Yes, I will never leave you.”

Quan Jue laughed softly, his eyes incredibly gentle.

—He wasn’t left with nothing. He still had her.

It was enough that he had her. He would never ask for anything else in this life.

Chi Jiao could clearly feel that something was wrong with him. She rubbed his back gently with her petite hand. “Brother Quan, did something happen?”

“Today is my mother’s death anniversary,” Quan Jue said faintly.

Chi Jiao held her breath and hugged him tighter. “Brother Quan, I’ll be by your side in the future.”

Other than that, she didn’t know how else to comfort him.

All other words seemed to pale at this moment.

She could only tell him what was on her mind.

Quan Jue grunted in acknowledgment.

Neither of them spoke after that. They just hugged each other quietly, which was more than any sweet talk.

The next day.

When Pei Yao reached White City, she went to find Huo Chen first before going to find Chi Jiao with him.

Today was originally Huo Chen’s day off, but he still came when Pei Yao called for him.

Chi Jiao was waiting for them downstairs.

Her eyes lit up when she saw them walking over together.

Because the scene of Pei Yao and Huo Chen walking together was too eye-catching.

Be it their aura or looks, the two of them were very compatible.
