Jing Che steadied the car, while Ji Junxue unbuckled the seatbelt and got out of the car.
He moved a bit slower out of habit, waiting for Jing Che to get out and close the car door with him.
One after the other, they walked toward the house.
Jing Che opened the door, letting Ji Junxue go inside first, then followed, closing the door behind him.
At the entrance, they changed shoes.
After changing his shoes, Ji Junxue didn't hurry inside but turned around and looked steadily at Jing Che.
He hadn't spoken all this time, as if locked in an inner struggle and conflict.
After his thoughts cleared, he suddenly spoke.
"Brother Jing Che, come back with me in a couple of days! Although I don't dare tell aunt about our relationship now, I'll find a suitable opportunity to tell her..."
Along the way, Jing Che couldn't calm his heart, feeling constantly anxious, and Ji Junxue's silence was as torturous and painful as a slow execution.
