As he listened to Grace's rambling, Xander couldn't hold back any longer. He grabbed her hand tightly.
Surprised by his sudden move, Grace hurriedly asked, "What's wrong, Xander?"
Xander stared at her face, struggling internally. In the end, he just said, "Maybe he was delayed by something."
This thought coincided with Grace's, and she instantly felt delighted.
"You think so too, right? I knew it. He must not have intentionally stood me up. But where did he go? I think he'll come to find me and explain after he finishes his business."
Xander hummed in agreement and turned his head to look into the distance. He didn't want to reveal his emotions in front of her.
He then casually said, "Gracie, I finally made the trip here, and all you talk about is another man. It's not very welcoming, is it?"
Only then did Grace realize that. She naturally hooked an arm around his. "I'm sorry, Xander. I didn't expect you to come here. I'm really happy.
"There are many delicious foods and fun places near our campus. You can stay here for a few more days. I'll take you to eat, explore, and have fun."
When Xander saw her regain her usual vitality, he couldn't help but smile. As her scent filled his nose, his wandering heart finally found a sense of belonging.
…
On the last day of the year, he accompanied her to celebrate the new year.
In the following days, during Grace's master's degree period, he went back and forth between Frenda and Coronia. He took more than 100 flights.
