XIAO POV

You told Aether to call him whenever he needed. But why? He hasn’t called you at all. You felt as if, he didn’t need you. But did he really?

As you stood on the roof of Wangshu Inn, you heard your name being called out. “Xiao!” You must’ve misheard. Until you heard it again.

As you popped up in front of Aether, there was a smile on his face. He held out his hand, your chin resting on his palm. “Hey, I haven’t seen you in a while.”
