Meanwhile, in International City.
Shen Xingchen had already finished her shower and was lying on the bed reading a book, while Shen Li was taking a shower in the bathroom.
By now, being with Shen Li, Shen Xingchen was completely at ease. It felt as though they were an old married couple, and she lay on the master bedroom's bed without needing any invitation from Shen Li.
After a short while, when Shen Li came out of the bathroom after his shower, Shen Xingchen immediately climbed out of bed, ran to Shen Li, and jumped into his arms, wrapping her legs around his waist and her arms around his neck: "Uncle."
Shen Li supported her buttocks with his hands, indulging her clinginess: "It's so late, and you're still awake. Aren't you working tomorrow?"
Burying her face on his shoulder, she nuzzled him and said, "Uncle, I can't sleep if you don't come over."
Holding Shen Xingchen close, Shen Li kissed her cheek and said, "Clingy little thing."
