Upon hearing your voice, Xian Qianling, who was still a bit uneasy inside, suddenly trembled, and an unintended tear slid down her smooth cheek.
"Uh-huh."
She quietly responded.
That gentle way you just called her name for the first time.
Captain Xian, who was always straightforward and outspoken, rarely exhibited a blush of shyness.
Li Yichen and the other three had naturally seen Xian Qianling before; although it had only been one planned meeting, they had a lasting impression. When Xian Qianling stepped out from the gap and walked up to you, the four men exchanged a look and simultaneously said, "Greetings, Teacher's wife (Sister-in-law)!"
"Call her Teacher's wife!"
"Say Sister-in-law!"
Ignoring Li Yichen and Pang Yuxuan's playful banter, you stepped forward and, under Xian Qianling's surprised and baffled gaze, reached out and wrapped your arms around her.
She clearly hadn't expected such a bold move from you and was momentarily so astonished that she couldn't speak.
