Ruan Tianling was just waiting for her to say this!

He took her hand, placing it on his chest, "Do you feel my heartbeat?"

"Mm." Jian Yufei nodded.

"Have you heard what my heart is trying to say to you?"

Jian Yufei was a bit puzzled by his gesture, "No."

"No worries, there are other ways for you to know my heart."

"You can just say it with your mouth."

Ruan Tianling smiled, "Saying it with my mouth is so mundane, and we are not ordinary people."

"Then how will you tell me?" Jian Yufei was very curious.

Ruan Tianling gave a devilish smile, guiding her hand downward, placing it on his heat.

"Now, do you understand?"

Jian Yufei: o(╯□╰)o

This is even more vulgar!

"Honey, although we can’t have a deeper connection for now, it doesn’t stop us from exploring other ways, right?"

"...Is this what fills you with hope for life?"

"Yes, indeed!" Ruan Tianling nodded emphatically.

Jian Yufei abruptly withdrew her hand and threw a pillow at his head, "Then just continue being hopeless about life."

Having said that, she started to get out of bed.

Before her feet could touch the ground, a strong arm had already wrapped around her waist.

Jian Yufei screamed as she was tackled back onto the bed by him.

"See where you can run, today you will, whether you want to or not!" Ruan Tianling pinned her shoulders down, pretending to threaten her menacingly.

Jian Yufei braced herself, resisting, "I won’t!"

Ruan Tianling’s hand slipped to her armpit...

"Haha, Ruan Tianling, stop it, haha..."

Jian Yufei’s laughter was so loud that even the guards patrolling outside couldn’t help but glance their way.

...

Joyful times are always short-lived.

The time for the showdown between Ruan Tianling and Nangong Xu arrived quickly.

Early in the morning, Jian Yufei got up, took Ruan Tianling’s clothes from the balcony, and helped him put them on.

Ruan Tianling spread his arms like a master, letting her serve him.

Jian Yufei fastened his belt and then slowly fastened his shirt buttons for him.

Ruan Tianling rarely wore the same shirt for many days.

Aside from when he was in a bind, he generally changed clothes every day.

But even if he wore the same clothes day after day, his charisma never diminished in the slightest.

Some people wear clothes that highlight them, but Ruan Tianling was someone who highlighted the clothes.

No matter how cheap the clothes were, they looked extraordinary on him.

Jian Yufei smoothed out a crease on his collar, "There’s no iron here, otherwise I could make your clothes neater."

Ruan Tianling pulled her hand to his lips, kissing it, "Clothes washed by my wife look better than any neat clothes."

The more time they spent together, the more sweet things Ruan Tianling said.

As if they were free, he gave her a whole basket every day.

And Jian Yufei enjoyed it, "Do you want a lucky kiss?"

"Of course!"

Ruan Tianling pulled her close by the waist, his eyes sparkling as he waited for her.

Jian Yufei stood on tiptoe, softly kissing his lips.

They didn’t share a deep kiss; just a simple one was enough to move the heart.

"Let’s go, it’s about time," Ruan Tianling said.

Jian Yufei nodded, but in truth, she was very nervous.

Today was just a competition, but she was very worried that something might happen to Ruan Tianling.

Nangong Xu wouldn’t show them any mercy. He was only sparing their lives because he wanted to continue tormenting them.
