Chapter 62: Will Miss Him Very Much

On the way, Lin Nanxun sat obediently in the back seat, clutching the phone Shen Hanzi had bought her yesterday, her beautiful little face showing a hint of unease.

The car drove onto a quiet lane and finally stopped in front of a white villa with a distinctive design.

"Miss Lin, we're here," Zhou Bei announced. "Ron is waiting for you."

Hearing Zhou Bei's words, Lin Nanxun glanced furtively out the window.

The bearded man was standing not far away, waiting.

"Bad guy, I'm a little scared, what should I do?" she whispered, her head lowered, feeling terribly nervous.

She was about to go to the bearded man's place, but the unfamiliar environment made her anxious.

Watching her tense expression, Shen Hanzi stared at her for a moment before speaking slowly.

"You're no different from them," he said, his voice filled with conviction. "There's no need to be afraid."

Though being by his side made her feel safe, she couldn't stay like this forever, couldn't always confine herself in that small circle.

If she could take this first step, it would mean she had overcome the first hurdle in her mind.

Perhaps soon, she would gradually recover and live like a normal person.

Listening to Shen Hanzi’s unwavering voice, the panic and fear in Lin Nanxun’s heart began to dissipate.

"The phone is fully charged; you can call me anytime, I’ll answer," Shen Hanzi glanced at the phone she held tightly.

Hearing this, Lin Nanxun still looked at him uncertainly, murmuring quietly, "Then... what if I want to see you?"

Whenever she felt afraid, she longed to see him.

But if he wasn’t there, what should she do alone?

Hearing her question, Shen Hanzi frowned slightly, then suddenly took out his phone, opened WeChat, and placed a video call to her.

Her phone rang; she looked at the screen and tapped to answer.

His handsome face appeared on her phone.

"I understand," she said instantly, a smile lighting up her face.

With the phone, she could see him anytime.

Smiling, she carefully tucked the phone into her down jacket pocket, then opened the car door and got out, walking obediently toward the bearded man who was waving energetically, afraid she hadn’t noticed him.

...

The car still sat by the roadside.

Inside, Shen Hanzi watched through the window, his gaze following Lin Nanxun’s gentle figure.

Her anxious back at that moment resembled a little girl going to kindergarten for the first time.

Even after Ron led her inside, Shen Hanzi’s eyes didn’t leave her.

"Boss, maybe we should go in and check," Zhou Bei suggested, glancing outside, unable to help himself.

Letting Miss Lin go alone to an unfamiliar place made him uneasy.

He worried that her gentle manner might invite trouble from arrogant people.

"No need, let’s go," Shen Hanzi replied.

If he went with her, she would only feel more afraid of the unfamiliar environment and want to stay within the safety of his presence.

But she needed to take this step.

"Alright..." Zhou Bei sighed as Shen Hanzi spoke, then drove away.

...

Ron, full of excitement, led Lin Nanxun inside.
