"Baby, I was wrong. Let's go home first." Ivanov soon pushed the rubber boat into the water. Looking back, he saw Chen An standing almost behind him.

In the past, Chen An basically kept a certain distance from him, even on sailboats with limited space.

"Let's go." Chen An didn't seem to notice his own change and hurried to the rubber boat. The tension floating in the air slowly disappeared until both of them returned to the sailing ship.

Today was too late to get any fresh food. Ivanov planned to open two cans and then use the strawberries he picked. Although he could not cook, he was good at making dessert.

Chen An gave himself a cup of water. Ivanov patted the man on the shoulder, "An, you should go back to your room and rest for a while. I will call you when the food is ready."

"No, I'll sit here for a while." Holding the cup in both hands, Chen An seemed still not recover from the tense atmosphere.

"What were you afraid of?" Ivanov felt that he had touched Chen An's secret, a weakness that the man had always hidden in his heart.

"I wasn't." Stubbornly tilting his head to one side, Chen An did not want to talk about this topic with Ivanov.

"An, look at yourself. You are nervous, scared, and frightened. You are in cold sweat and even now you are still shaking." Holding the man's hands tightly, Ivanov watched him and said softly, "I'm worried about you."

"All right, I'm just a little bit tired. I''s okay."

The man was disarming in front of Ivanov, who would lose the chance to discover the inner Chen An.

If he only playing with other people's feelings, he would not care about what others were thinking and what weaknesses they had.

But he cared about Chen An. The longer he got along with this man, the more he cares about him, and the more he cared, the more he wanted to know him.

"Ann..."

Looking back on the scenes just now, Ivanov moved aside and gently hugged the man from behind. If it had been before, Chen An would have pushed him away without hesitation, but now the man did not.

Perhaps this was the crux of the problem.

"If you hate to say it, let's just forget it. I will not leave you. I will stay with you all the time."

Chen An closed his eyes and leaned against Ivanov's arms. He could feel the bear's powerful arms, his hot body temperature, and even the smell of the sweat from Ivanov.

These were all true. He was not alone.

Chen An held Ivanov's hand tightly around his waist with a strength strong as to crush Ivanov's hand.

"Don't leave me alone..."
