"I like you too."
Tilting her face up, gazing at the tall man in front of her, Yu Yao finally mustered her courage to say those words she had buried deep in her heart, words she was afraid to admit.
At first, perhaps it was only because his body harbored a heart that belonged to her younger brother, so she treated him like family, guarding him.
However, after being with him for so long, that sense of protection had unknowingly changed.
Whenever she saw him, her heart would skip a beat involuntarily.
The knowing smile at work, preparing breakfast for him every morning, feeling accomplished watching him eat happily...
At the beginning, she also thought it was because of that heart.
These past few days, without him by her side, she felt restless, as if she had lost her soul.
Afraid he wasn't eating well, afraid he wasn't sleeping well, afraid his wound might hurt...
She then realized, she was wrong, what she cared about was no longer just his heart and body.
