Shocking! The young educated youth had just arrived and was already clashing with spies.

Chapter 982 The two of them were already being watched.

The car was getting closer and closer, showing no intention of slowing down. Just as the two police officers were about to pull Chu Xin away, she suddenly took a step forward.

next second.

"Squeak—!"

A screeching sound of brakes rang out, the car body lurched forward, and was immediately pulled back by the enormous inertia, the whole car shaking violently before finally coming to a complete stop.

Chu Xin looked down at the distance between herself and the front of the car, which was only a hand's breadth apart, and her smile deepened.

She looked up again and met a pair of deep eyes that seemed to suck her soul away. She watched as the owner of those eyes got out of the car, and then she froze.

Even Chu Yunting, who rushed over after getting out of the car, hugged him, and cried loudly with his mouth wide open, didn't even bother to give him a glance.

Chu Xin stared at Zhou Yichen's unexpectedly white hair for a long time before finally murmuring, "It's only been seven years, how come your hair is all white?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Yunting cried even louder, "Waaah, it's true, you're Xiao Chu! You're finally back! We've missed you so much all these years, waaaah..."

After getting off the bus, Zhou Yichen belatedly realized that his legs felt as heavy as lead, and that every step required all his strength. He couldn't help but tear up after hearing Chu Xin's murmur.

His Adam's apple bobbed repeatedly, his throat dry and aching, a thousand words stuck in his chest, unable to utter a single one.

Seeing him like this, Chu Xin felt bad too. She walked over and stopped when she was almost touching him. She looked up at him and her heart suddenly tightened.

With such a cautious, timid, and uneasy look in his eyes, what was Zhou Yichen afraid of?

Suppressing the bitterness in her heart, Chu Xin greeted him with a smile, "Long time no see, Zhou Yichen."

His heart pounded in his chest, all panic, fear, and anxiety were replaced by ecstasy. Zhou Yichen reached out tremblingly, and the moment he touched Chu Xin's cheek, he pulled her into a tight embrace, pulling her closer and closer.

He wished he could just meld her into his body.

This is her, no doubt about it, but...

Zhou Yichen was heartbroken. His Chu Xin must have suffered so much to be able to come back...

Chu Xin silently hugged him back, deeply inhaling his cool, deep scent. She felt relieved but also heartbroken for him, especially when she felt the obvious dampness in his shoulder. For the first time, she gently patted Zhou Yichen's back with tenderness.

"Thank you for waiting for me for so long."

"...It's so good that you're back..." Zhou Yichen's voice was hoarse and barely audible.

Chu Xin pulled away and cupped his face in her hands, forcing him to look at her. She deliberately put on a relaxed tone, "Why is a grown man shedding tears? Zhou Yichen, this is so unlike you."

Zhou Yichen's Adam's apple bobbed violently. The usually composed man uncontrollably avoided Chu Xin's gaze, gently rubbing his face against her palm. Before his ears turned completely red, he said in a hoarse voice, "May all your wishes come true... I'm not ashamed to cry for you."

Chu Xin:......

Good heavens! Those reddened eyes, the tears welling up in his eyelashes and trembling slightly—it's one thing for the aloof and cool guy to become melancholic, but now he suddenly looks like a cute little puppy. Who can stand this?

"cough!"

A deliberately exaggerated dry cough came from the side, and Chu Yunting's hoarse voice, filled with indescribable grievance, sounded like he was crying.

"I'm telling you two, that's enough. Just ignore me if you want, but if you really want to say something, can't you wait until we're somewhere private before you start arguing? There are so many people watching!"

Chu Xin turned her head away and glared at him, but still patted Zhou Yichen's face and then distanced herself from him.

Indeed, the time and place were wrong; the two of them had already been surrounded by onlookers.
