Lin Qingyan was still sitting on the ground, staring blankly at the person before him.
Shen Xi turned and walked over to him, holding out a hand. “Can you get up?”
Lin Qingyan was pulled to his feet in a daze. “Th-thank you...” His voice was still shaking.
Lin Qingyan woke first. He opened his eyes and saw the person in his arms.
Shen Xi’s face was nestled against his shoulder, his breathing even and unhurried. Morning light spilled through the gap in the window, casting a soft glow across his cheek.
Lin Qingyan’s Adam’s apple bobbed. He turned his gaze away with some effort. Last night had already made him uncomfortable, so he’d better not get carried away today.
“Father, look, a rainbow!” Lin Xiao pointed at the horizon.
Lin Qingyan looked up. Sure enough, a rainbow stretched across the sky.
Shen Xi leaned against his shoulder.
Lin Xiao ran over and took both their hands. “Father, Papa, let’s go see the rainbow!”
“Okay.” Lin Qingyan picked him up. “Let’s go see the rainbow.”
