After rejecting my celebrity husband novel Chapter 275

Chapter 275: Chapter 276: Did you miss me?【3】

After nearly four hours on a plane and rushing back from the airport to World City, Leng Zimo arrived at the apartment door. It was nearly five in the morning.

He quietly opened the apartment door and, seeing the light seeping through the crack, felt a warmth envelope his weary body and soul.

When his mother had been alive, no matter how late he came home, she would always leave a light on for him.

Now, at last, someone else was keeping the light on for him.

But what awaited him was a surprise beyond his expectations, not just a light but also a person.

No sooner had he dragged his suitcase inside and before he could close the door, a voice filled with surprise came his way.

"Zimo, you’re back!"

Luo Xiaoqian jumped up from the couch with a startled joy and in a few steps, reached him.

Staring at the familiar little face before him, Leng Zimo first felt joy, then frowned.

"Didn’t I tell you to go to sleep?"

Luo Xiaoqian flashed a sheepish smile, "I couldn’t sleep, okay?"

After being so busy for a long stretch and sitting in a plane for hours, how could one not sleep?!

"Fine!" Luo Xiaoqian hung her head down low, "I drank a cup of your coffee."

She couldn’t bear to sleep before him, who had come from so far. To prevent herself from dozing off while waiting for him on the couch, she had brewed a pot of black coffee.

Gazing at Luo Xiaoqian, looking like a little schoolgirl who had done something wrong, clad in her house clothes and with her head hung down, Leng Zimo found it impossible to utter a word of reprimand.

Letting go of his luggage, he took a step forward and pulled her into his embrace, holding her tightly.

Although this embrace came at a time and place different from what he had imagined, her scent was as fresh as he remembered, and her body as gentle and soft.

Her face pressed against his chest, Luo Xiaoqian slowly raised her arms and gently wrapped them around his waist.

"Tighter."

He ordered softly, his voice above her head.

She tightened her arms, summoning all her strength.
