Chương 263: 5.04 – Her Fourth Lifetime - His Intellectual & Her Genius

° After earning her PhD, Xue Bi received a position in France. She and Zu Kai were set to leave in a month.

° "Do you want a hug before I leave?" After asking so, Xue Bi felt the silent storm occurring between the two brothers.

° Blinking his eyes in confusion, Lu Kai nodded his head before Zu Kai could voice out a word of objection. As Xue Bi wrapped him in a tentative hug, he felt his defenses soften. He encircled his arms around her shoulders and waist, drawing her in closer. 

° Despite the piercing pain in his chest and the heaviness in his stomach, it fluttered at the feeling of her body pressed against his. He drowned in her warmth and the smell of her freshly bathed skin as he listened to her quiet sobbing, "You don't have to feel guilty. Good luck with your research."

° "And you…sniff... don't have to…sniff... behave like an adult. Although, I do like this side of you," she said.
