Stealing the moonlight into my arms

Chapter 167 I Allow You to Be Unbridled Once

Fu Runing was still immersed in her own sadness.

I heard no other sound at all.

Until she heard the slight sound of the door opening, before she could react, the quilt covering her head was lifted up the next moment.

Fu Runing was caught off guard and met the man's deep yet worried eyes.

The man lifted the quilt and looked her up and down.

In the end, it only stayed on her red eyes from crying.

"I was so scared. I thought something was wrong with you, hiding in bed and crying like this."

Fu Runing heard the tone of the voice and knew that it was Xiaoting again.

She sniffed and pulled the quilt over her head again.

There is no extra emotion to coax others now.

She could only comfort herself first.

Unexpectedly, the next second, the man lifted the other end of the quilt and crawled into it.

In the dim light, the two people's limbs collided in this crowded place.

The man hugged her and asked in a low voice: "Tell me, what happened?"

Fu Runing just sobbed, but still didn't want to say anything.

There's no point talking to him.

What does he know.

The man put his arm around her waist and pulled her closer to him. He held her hand with his other hand, wrapping it around his calloused palm.

He whispered in her ear, "Is it because of Dad's illness?"

Fu Runing nodded reluctantly.

"I guess so. There aren't many people who can make you cry like this."

The man didn't say anything else, but just pressed against her back, accompanying her silently.

Fu Runing had originally suppressed those emotions, but the arrival of this uninvited guest in her bed made her inexplicably start to feel sad again.

The sobbing sound turned into low sobs.

She bit her lip to avoid making any sound.

But the man whispered in her ear: "It's okay, the soundproofing in the room is OK, no one can hear it, and if they hear it, they can just say they cried while watching the drama."

Fu Runing turned around and faced him, wiping her tears and snot onto his shirt on her chest.

The man didn't mind at all. He just hugged her again and patted her back gently with his palm.

The man seemed to feel that there was not enough air in the quilt, so he lifted a corner to allow her to breathe more freely.

Gradually, Fu Runing's trembling body stopped and her sobbing became less and less.

Only then did the man speak: "I don't want Dad to leave either. If he leaves, we will become unwanted children."

Fu Runing choked up and said, "Why don't you have anyone wanting you? Don't you have a biological father, and grandparents?"

"Xiao Hongshen doesn't count. My grandparents and I are just not meant to be together. They reappeared in my life when I didn't need them."

Fu Runing still buried her face in front of him, "Do you miss us after you return to the Xiao family?"

"Of course I do. There's not a day that I don't. But that coward thought you guys had abandoned him. That's when I started to feel his emotions more and more strongly."

Upon hearing this, Fu Runing thought of the timeline when Xiao Jingting developed this disease, which was after he returned to the Xiao family.

The man continued in her ear: "I never thought there would be someone who would love me unconditionally, love me as a person, and patiently tolerate everything about me. I know I'm not good enough, but he never makes any demands on me."

Fu Runing muttered in agreement, "My dad is the best dad in the world."

"I think so."

Hearing this, Fu Runing's nose began to feel sore again, as if she had lost control of her tears and wanted to cry again.

The man lifted her chin and lowered his head to kiss her lips. It was not forceful, nor was it a gesture of possession. It was just a light test. After she showed no sign of resistance, he gradually deepened the kiss.

Fu Runing only felt that her brain was in chaos. The brief feeling of lack of oxygen made her unable to think about anything else, and even her body relaxed.

She felt the man's hand moving somewhere else, but she didn't stop him.

The man left her lips, and the distance between them widened slightly, but in this small and crowded space, their bodies were still tightly pressed together.

"Don't cry. He is the person in the world who wants you to be happy the most. You should be happy for him too. You can be sad for a while because of him, but you can only be sad for a short while, otherwise he will not be at ease."

Fu Runing nodded.

She felt that what Xiaoting said made sense.

She understood these words, but who could control these emotions all the time?

The man rubbed her head, calmed his chaotic breathing, and then asked her: "Go wash your face and have a good sleep?"

Perhaps the current environment was too ambiguous, Fu Runing took the initiative to put her arms around his neck, her breath fell on the man's ear, arousing a burning itch.

She opened her lips slightly, her voice still choked and hoarse.

"I allow you to be unruly for once."
