Chapter 1949: I’m Here, Don’t Be Afraid
Ever since Han Zhuoling and Shi Xiaoya started dating, Han Zhuoling was no longer the old Han Zhuoling from before.
He would clock out from work on time and go report to Shi Xiaoya’s studio.
Sometimes, when Shi Xiaoya went out and had not come back yet, Han Zhuoling would stay in Shi Xiaoya’s office and do work while waiting for her.
As Han Zhuoling really went over too many times, even Guo Yujie became familiar with Han Zhuoling’s voice.
“You… you also heard it?” Shi Xiaoya blinked. She was not the only one who’d heard it. That meant… that meant that it might not be an illusion!
Guo Yujie nodded and said in surprise, “You also heard it?”
“Yeah. I thought I missed him too much, so… so I imagined it,” Shi Xiaoya said honestly.
The two of them completely forgot that outside the door, Han Zhuoling was still standing.
He could hear the two’s conversation very clearly.
The corners of his lips could not help but twitch.
But when he heard Shi Xiaoya’s words, Han Zhuoling’s lips could not help but curve up into a smile.
But in an instant, his expression turned cold.
He reached out with his hand and held Zheng Xuexin’s wrist, then only exerted a little bit of strength.
Zheng Xuexin instantly groaned in pain. “Ah!”
Han Zhuoling threw him on the floor in disgust. “Open your dog eyes and take a clear look at who I am!”
Zheng Xuexin was about to curse and scream at the person, but when he heard that voice, he became doubtful and finally looked at Han Zhuoling.
When he did, it made him so scared that he trembled.
How would he still look as admirable and friendly as he did usually?
The Zheng Xuexin now was on the verge of peeing his pants.
“Young… You-You-Young… Young Master Ling!” Zheng Xuexin stuttered, as if his tongue was tied in a knot. He could not even say these words properly anymore.
Han Zhuoling scoffed and said, “Didn’t you call me Han Zhuoling pretty smoothly just now?”
“No… No, no… I-I won’t dare to!” Zheng Xuexin scrambled to get on his feet and just knelt in front of Han Zhuoling.
Shi Xiaoya: “…”
Guo Yujie: “…”
He had been so obstinate and shameless with them just now.
They never expected that when Zheng Xuexin got scared, he would become so shameless.
No matter what, there was no need for him to go on his knees.
With Han Zhuoling around, Shi Xiaoya did not need to worry anymore, so she just opened the door to watch the show.
Han Zhuoling glanced at her and extended his hand towards her.
Coincidentally, Zheng Xuexin was kneeling right in front of Shi Xiaoya’s door.
Shi Xiaoya took one step out. Even though she knew Han Zhuoling was there and Zheng Xuexin would not do anything, she still felt a little traumatized and leaned closely against the wall, trying to stay as far away from Zheng Xuexin as possible.
The moment Han Zhuoling saw that his dear little girl had been scared stiff by this joker, his face instantly turned cold.
He took one step forward and lifted his leg to kick Zheng Xuexin on the shoulder.
He kicked Zheng Xuexin, who was kneeling on the floor, backward such that he would roll to the side.
“I’m here, don’t be afraid,” Han Zhuoling said to Shi Xiaoya.
Shi Xiaoya suddenly paused and felt her eyes sting.
She suddenly felt that no matter what requests Han Zhuoling had tonight, she wanted to agree to it.
After a momentary pause, she instantly ran over to Han Zhuoling’s side.
She hugged his elbow tightly with both hands and rested her forehead on his shoulder.
She sniffed and could smell the thick and fragrant scent of oakwood on his body.
This time, it was not a mint scent, but a thick, woody scent, yet it made her feel even more secure.
Shi Xiaoya felt so touched that her heart turned soft all over. She hugged his elbow tightly, as if she was hugging a pillow. She drew it especially close.
How could he be so nice and come just in time?
Every time, when she was in a situation where she was afraid, she could not help but think of Han Zhuoling in her mind.
