“I like it very much.” Fang Chixia’s tendency to rebel against what he wanted her to do prompted her to say otherwise.
Luo Yibei was caught speechless at her retort. The corners of his eyes crinkled but he didn’t insist on it.
He fixed his attention on her for a while, before dropping a unexpected comeback: “Then just keep it hidden.”
Hiding it was nothing but covering it up, but Fang Chixia took it as if a collection.
Fang Chixia thought that he needn’t remind her of it as she was keeping the ring concealed well.
Her fingertips dusted the spot on the ring that had just been touched by Luo Yibei, wiped it clean and hid it behind her clothes.
Her dusting was careful and was a bit the picture of her disgust of Luo Yibei’s touch.
Her move instantly turned Luo Yibei’s brows wrinkled.
“I’ll go out first!” Fang Chixia was oblivious to his gaze and swiveled around, striding out of the room.
“Stop righ there!” Luo Yibei loudly commanded.
Fang Chixia brushed him off and instead accelerated her pace.
She briskly walked out of the room in excellent mood. Along the hallway, she even hummed her favorite song.
Luo Yibei’s entire face was distorted the moment he heard her crips and clear: “When I grow up, I want to be your bride~~”
Pulling the door open, he went after her.
He was quick, as if a wild beast on the loose, which drove Fang Chixia into a state of crisis. Fang Chixia looked behind her and then to her way out of the building. She pulled her legs and headed to the staircase quickly, but Luo Yibei’s figure was quicker. In a flash, before she could step a food on the stairs, she was blocked.
The two were now in the Luo’s residence and Fang Chixia was very much aware of the occasion.
Looking up at his gloomy face, her swagger early instantly switched into a confrontational posture as she took two steps back: “Don’t make a fuss, everyone is still below.”
“Does it matter?” Luo Yibei caged her against the wall and leaned towards her, sticking his low-pitched retort beside her ear.
Fang Chixia was disturbed by his closeness and that the skin behind her ears down to her neck burned.
Pinkish cheeks glittered like cherry blosso petals awashed by milk.
Luo Yibei was entranced at her torpid gaze. He leaned over once more and slowly tilted her head up.
Fang Chixia lost her breath. Meeting his eyes head on and watching as his face came closer, she dodged.
This woman, Luo Yibei arched a brow.
He aligned his lips on hers quickly, but before he could deepen the kiss, the sound of footsteps came from the bottom of the stairs.
The two were still standing in the hallway and this abrupt sound left both of them dumbfounded at the same time.
Fang Chixia pushed him away in a fluster. She regained her composure and headed down as if nothing had happened.
Luo Yibei snorted softly and stalked after her.
The person who was coming up was Sha Zhixing. At the sight of Fang Chixia’s blush, she came to some understanding, but said nothing.
“Madam, is Xiao Zuo better now?” Fang Chixia asked politely.
“There should be no big deal. Kids are really like this. It’s been tough on you Miss Fang.” Sha Zhixing smiled gently.
“This is what I should do. I’ll go and check on him again.” Fang Chixia gave her a light bow and then continued on her way down.
