Li Si hurriedly rushed to catch the plane back to North City, finally exhaling a breath of relief after boarding. The timing had been far too tight—if she hadn't acted quickly, she would have missed the flight. Thinking about the gift in her luggage, a smile bloomed on her face. She wondered if he'd like it!
As soon as she deplaned, she spotted the stern face of Leng Mochen waiting for her. Li Si quickly ran up to him and playfully clung to his strong arm. "Don't be mad! Aren't I back now?"
Leng Mochen gave her a cold glare. "Don't let it happen again!"
Seeing her return safely, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. The wait earlier had been torturous—his heart was plagued with worry about potential mishaps.
"Alright, got it! I'm starving. Take me to eat, will you? Mochen!" Li Si immediately pretended to nod weakly, blinking her eyes like an adorable puppy.
