Chapter 273: Chapter 274 There is a woman waiting

At this moment, the helicopter’s lights had dimmed, and the man’s face gradually became clear in her eyes.

Clean-cut light brown hair, an exquisitely matchless face, eyes blue as the sea twinkling with laughter—it was not Moses she had imagined but Huangfu Jue.

"It’s you!"

"Who else could it be?"

The man walked over, bowed his head to look at her, and asked with a smile.

"No... it’s not..." She quietly moved her right hand behind her back, slipped the knife into her pants, and raised her lips to smile at him, "I mean... didn’t you say you would be back tomorrow?"

"I couldn’t wait until tomorrow."

Huangfu Jue lifted his right hand to cradle her cheek.

From the moment his car left the estate, he had been thinking of her. The plan had been to return tomorrow morning, but he couldn’t find peace in his heart, worrying that someone might trouble them, mother and son. So he skipped meals and kept busy with work, finally finishing ahead of schedule and rushing back to the estate before midnight.

Seeing him lift his hand as if to embrace her, Gan Yuan hurriedly lifted her right hand, grasped his extended palm, and the other arm reached out to hug him.

"Welcome... home!"

Joining palms, Huangfu Jue supported the back of her head and pulled her into his chest, his face burying in her hair.

Just now, as soon as he got off the plane and saw her coming to greet him, his heart also felt a rare flutter.

After reaching adulthood, he had moved out of the Royal Palace, flying all around the world each day, for work, for social engagements...

Around the globe, he had countless properties, even at his busiest sleeping in a different bed every night, no place gave him the feeling of home except for the Royal Palace.

But just now, just a moment ago, when he saw her emerging from the room, he suddenly understood why his father, no matter how busy or tired, would always rush back to the Royal Palace, even in dead of night or at dawn, because there was a woman waiting at home.

No need for anything else, just her smile, her embrace, a "you’re back" could already provide immense comfort, the toil of travel squeezed out by the warmth in his heart.

The man still carried the dust of travel on him, but his chest was as warm as she remembered, irresistibly comforting.

Pinching the collar of his suit, Gan Yuan felt so tight in her chest it was almost hard to breathe.

Oh God, why did she have to meet him, why did they have to reunite, why...

Could this really be destiny?!

Her fingers trembled slightly.

Sensing her subtle movements, Huangfu Jue tenderly cradled her face.

"Why are your hands so cold?"

"I..." she covered up her inner turmoil, "I’m a little cold."

Such a grown person, and still not knowing how to take care of oneself?!

The estate was situated in the mountains, and the nights were still chilly, she was only wearing a thin T-shirt, of course she was cold.

"Idiot!" His rebuke was laced with concern, he cursed softly, but had already deftly taken off his suit jacket to drape it over her shoulders, his hands then reaching to embrace her, "Come inside with me."

Gan Yuan turned and followed him up the stairs, her steps heavy.

"Hot tea!"

The man had already raised his voice to command, pulling her to sit on the couch; he casually took a blanket and wrapped it around her legs, then reached out to take the tea cup from the servant and crouched in front of her, offering it to her.

Gan Yuan took the tea cup, holding the warm vessel in her palms, her gaze landing on his face.

"You haven’t eaten yet, have you?"
