You Are The Apple of My Eyes
Chapter 468 Back In His Arms

John's kiss was dominant but gentle, as if to pour all his longing into this long kiss.

Nina smelled his unique scent, felt his hot breath on her neck, and heard a gasp escaping in between kisses.

And all the cells in her body were responding to him.

The man belonged to her.

His face was less than an inch away from hers. Up close, she could see his tall nose and his exceptionally long and slender eyelashes, trembling slightly.

Even with trembling lips, he continued to kiss her.

Slowly, Nina closed her eyes. Her crystal clear tears rolled down, falling between their mouths, leaving a faint salty taste.

The salty taste of Nina's tears in John's tongue felt like a gathering of all longing and suffering he had experienced for more than half a year. Remembering all the moments that they weren't together made him bitter and aching.

He parted his lips away from hers and slowly opened his eyes. He held Nina's face, gently kissed the tip of her delicate nose, kissed her closed eyes and her tearful eyelashes, and kissed her forehead.

John didn't speak a word. When he closed his eyes again, two lines of tears fell.

'Finally, she came back to me.'

For a while, neither of them spoke. Nina broke the silence and said in a sobbing voice,

"It's been half a year. I can't hear your voice, see your face or smell your scent. I can't hold your hands or hug you. I can't..." Nina's voice was cracking, making it hard for her to continue. But she still had a lot to say so she pressed on.

"I missed you so much. I can't bear it, so I tried not to miss you. But the more I tried, I missed you even more. At first, it was almost impossible for me to sleep. I missed you so much that I couldn't fall asleep. But I couldn't sleep either without thinking about you.

John, it's all your fault." Nina pursed her mouth, and the tears that she had tried hard to hold down welled up again.

She pressed her head against John's chest, wrapped his arms tightly around him and cried.

Her tears streamed all the way down

and dropped on the white floor.

"It's all my fault." John stroked her back. The sound of her cries made his heart ache, with every wail smashing his heart into pieces.

He let her cry for a while and then pulled her away.

He was worried that she would be feeling uncomfortable with her forehead against him.

"Honey, don't cry." John wiped her tears and saw that her eyes were red from crying.

Nina also wiped the tears and nodded. "Okay, I won't cry."

"Shouldn't you be happy to see me? Why are you crying?" John asked.

"I was so happy that I cried tears of joy." Nina looked up at him.

With a gentle smile, he leaned against her and kissed her on the lips. "Smile," he said softly.

"How can I smile immediately after you tell me to smile?" Nina pouted.

"Then how can I make you smile?" John motioned his hand towards her face and pinched her. When Nina raised her hand to push his away, he took the opportunity to pull her hand to his lips and kiss it. When his lips touched her hand, Nina blushed with shyness and withdrew her hand.

Perhaps because of her pregnancy, her body was very sensitive, and both her hands were no exception.

"I'll smile if you tell me something funny."

"There is something really funning," John said after thinking for a while.

Nina didn't believe that he could tell a joke. At best, he could tell a bad joke.

Hearing what he had said, Nina became interested.

"Tell me."

"You sent a message to James in the middle of the night. When he woke up the second morning, he was so scared because he thought you were a ghost. He also told me that you had a group of followers in the underworld."

"Ha-ha..." Nina laughed out loud. "Did he really believe it?"

"Yes." The sight of her smile made John smile as well. He looked at her and swelled with an overflowing affection.

'It's so good to see you smile again.'

John reached out and held her in his arms. His chin rubbed against her head. "I missed you very much."

"Me too." Nina nuzzled against his chest and asked, "How did you come to C Island?"

"Your brother took me here."

"What? My brother is back?" Nina was shocked. "But I haven't heard of it. Why didn't he contact me since he came back?"

"I can't get in touch with him after he went back home." John was still a little worried about this. If he couldn't get in touch with Leon, it would be difficult for him to implement the rest part of the plan. Nina seemed to have thought of something and smiled. "You may not be able to contact him in the next week. My parents are punishing him."

"What kind of punishment?" John asked curiously.

"It depends on his luck. I feel sorry for him." Nina sighed.

"Why are you smiling so happily if you feel sorry for him?"

"Am I smiling?" Nina wiped the smile off her lips and looked at him with her eyes brimming with innocence.

John smiled, "No."

"I never smiled. I just feel sorry for my brother." Nina was satisfied by his answer.

"You are so naughty!" John pinched her face.

Once again, she giggled and rubbed her face against his chest.

Suddenly, they heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside the bathroom, with one step louder than the last.

"Shh..." Nina covered his mouth with her hand and furtively poked her head. "Let's keep silent. Otherwise, someone will discover us." "Okay." John nodded.

Meanwhile, outside the bathroom, a man saw the repair sign. "It was normal when we first arrived. Why is it being repaired?" he asked. "Who knows. Forget it. Hold on for a while."

"Can't you hold it back? Anyway, I can't."

"I don't want to use the bathroom."

"Fuck off!"

"I'm leaving. Will you go?"

"I'm leaving with you."

The two men left, talking and laughing. Nina burst into snickering laughter and whispered, "They are so funny."

John took her hand down and said, "You covered my mouth, but here you are, laughing?"

"Ha-ha..." Nina laughed again.

She found that as long as she was with John, even the smallest things in her life would become funny.

"Ahem..." Noah stood at the repair sign and coughed.

He didn't want to disturb the two of them, but he wanted to say goodbye to Nina before he left for Spring City.

"It's Noah." Nina recognized the voice. "They have finished watching the movie. Let's go out."

"Wait!" John pulled her back. "Don't go out until there are few people outside. Otherwise, someone will see you walk out from the men's room." "You are so considerate. But who pulled me in just now?" Nina glared at him.

John remained silent.

When the next movie started, there was no one else outside. Feeling it was already safe, the two of them came out one after the other.

Noah was standing in the corridor, waiting for them.

"Noah, where is Vicente?" Nina asked as she looked around.

"He's waiting for you outside. He said he wanted to see what popcorn kept you for so long." Noah glanced at John who was already wearing a mask. His eyes were no longer dejected. Instead, they were full of life.

At this moment, John furrowed his brows. He was worried that Vicente would be angry at Nina.
