After rejecting my celebrity husband novel Chapter 164

Chapter 164: Chapter 164: Take Medicine [8]

"Don’t get me wrong, it’s not like I deliberately chose not to wear it!" Seeing him furrow his brows, Luo Xiaoqian thought he was angry, so she quickly explained, "The dress is beautiful, but somebody deliberately spilled juice on it yesterday, so that’s why I didn’t wear it..."

Leng Zimo set down the document in his hand, and leisurely walked up to her.

She instinctively took a step back, "I’ll take it to the wash in a bit, and next time I go on stage, I’ll definitely wear it..."

Lifting his hand, he took the large delivery box from her and casually tossed the dress aside, and with one reach of his arm, he enclosed her waist and pulled her into an embrace.

"From now on, you don’t need to be so cautious around me, just be yourself!"

His chest was broad and solid, and the palm of his hand resting on her waist and back was so warm, as was the sound of his voice, uncharacteristically gentle.

In his arms, she felt as secure as when she was a child embraced by her father.

Peaceful.

With her face against his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, her hands hesitated for a moment but eventually rose to gently wrap around his waist.

"Thank you, Zimo!"

Thank you for everything you’ve done for me!

The human heart is made of flesh; only a heart of stone would not be moved by all he had done for her.

For a long time.

The two of them didn’t speak, just held each other quietly until Leng Zimo’s phone on the office desk suddenly rang.

Luo Xiaoqian returned to her senses, hurried to let go of his waist, and stepped away from his embrace.

"I’ll be going then!" She turned and ran towards the door, took a few steps, then turned back, picked up the box containing the gown from the floor, "I’ll take it to the dry cleaner!"
