Chapter 22: Fu Chen? Fu Sinian! (1/2)

As tears welled up in her eyes and rolled down her cheeks, Xu Zijin raised her head in shock and disbelief, her heart beating violently.

They were kissing and cuddling in the ward.

Xu Zijin had no idea of how that happened. Fu Chen kissed her so gently and piously that she couldn't refuse him at all.

He cupped her face and kissed her tears away with pure adoration, like a devout follower devoting himself to his G.o.ddess.
