Chapter 304: Chapter 303 Who Are You Exactly (3)
Dong Xin Yan unzipped her bag, took out her phone, and glanced at the caller ID; it was an unfamiliar number.
She was slightly puzzled, but still answered, "Hello, who is this?"
"Xinxin, it’s me." On the other side, a familiar voice slowly emerged, etched deep into her soul, as gentle and indulging as she remembered, "I’m okay now."
Yuan Shen sprinted from the café toward the hospital, while after hanging up, Dong Xin Yan quickly reached out to hail a cab. By the time he ran to the hospital entrance, Dong Xin Yan had opened the car door and slipped inside the car.
He dashed into the hospital, while she sat in the car, distancing herself from the hospital bit by bit.

The car arrived at the detention center. Dong Xin Yan paid, pushed open the door, and got out of the car. Without even catching her breath, she rushed into the detention center.
When Dong Xin Yan rushed in, the lawyer was accompanying Cheng Ziyang to complete the paperwork.
He was sitting there, quietly elegant, looking from afar like a landscape ink painting. His familiar face, familiar eyebrows and eyes, familiar posture—every inch of him tugged violently at her heart.
Dong Xin Yan couldn’t hold back for even a moment longer, and dashed forward.
Cheng Ziyang, with his head lowered, was signing a document and hadn’t noticed Dong Xin Yan, so he was suddenly struck by a force, followed by a soft and warm body covering him.
His body instinctively stiffened, and in the next second, a familiar voice whispered softly in his ear, "Ziyang."
In the detention center, he’d been held for a hundred days and nights, constantly longing for this voice, echoing in his ears even in dreams.
It became his greatest courage to keep going.
"Xinxin."
He curled his lips into a smile, slowly began to speak, every word drenched in extreme tenderness, expressing his endless longing.
He put down the pen in his hand, stood up, turned around, and took the lead to tightly embrace that soft and delicate body with his long arms.
As if he used all the strength in his body to hold her, fearing that if he let go, she would vanish like in a dream, and no matter how much he called or chased, he wouldn’t be able to touch her again.
His chin rested on her head, he lowered his head slightly, kissed her forehead, and his voice carried a hint of hoarseness, "Xinxin, I missed you so much."
Dong Xin Yan also tightly embraced Cheng Ziyang, holding him close, feeling his warmth, his heartbeat, his breath.
Her Ziyang was really back, back safe and sound.
She had waited so long, suffered so much; finally, she had waited for him. All the past sadness and pain seemed worthwhile at this moment.
Her red lips moved slightly, trying to say something, but as soon as she opened her mouth, tears burst forth, choking her throat with a bitter taste, making her unable to speak.
She was clearly happy, yet tears uncontrollably fell, soaking Cheng Ziyang’s clothes little by little.
Cheng Ziyang held the trembling, crying person in his arms, his heart couldn’t stop aching; he hugged her even tighter, his voice low and gentle, "Silly, why are you crying? Aren’t I okay now, hmm?"
As he spoke, he reached out, gently lifted Dong Xin Yan’s face, and slowly wiped away her tears with his warm fingertips.
