Chapter 71: Hot and Cold

"Yu Shiyan, what's wrong with you!"

Yuan Siyin's voice trembled slightly, as if she had really hurt herself.

Seeing her face contort in pain, Yu Shiyan paused, then unconsciously softened his tone to comfort her, saying, "This sachet isn't pretty. I'll get you a prettier one next time."

As he spoke, he wrapped his left hand around Yuan Siyin's waist and pressed it against her back, gently rubbing her back. With his right hand, he took advantage of her inattention, flicked his fingertips to remove the sachet, threw it on the ground, and kicked it a little further away.

Zi Yuan and Bai Tu sensed the somewhat ambiguous atmosphere between the two, so they gently bent their knees and retreated without making a sound.

Feeling that cool, large hand gently caressing her most sensitive back through the thin layers of veil, a tingling, electric current instantly surged wherever the fingers touched.

Yuan Siyin shivered involuntarily, her ears turned bright red instantly, and she felt dizzy and didn't know how to react, not even knowing where to put her hands.

Is Xiaobaihua's condition getting serious? Why is she being treated so coldly and hotly all the time?

The strings that had never connected in her mind suddenly came to life, and then Yuan Siyin had a brainstorming session, coming up with a very serious matter.

The innocent-looking girl is the male lead; he should be hugging Qi Xinxin, not her!

Humans cannot, or at least should not.

Oh my god!

Just as she was about to break free from Yu Shiyan's grasp, the hand placed on her waist pinched her perfectly, leaving her nowhere to escape.

Yuan Siyin: The Mask of Pain.

She smiled ingratiatingly, her expression incredibly obsequious: "Um, fine, if you don't want to wear it, can we just let go of each other first?"

Yu Shiyan pulled her into his arms with interest, a hint of teasing in his eyes: "Oh no, don't you like to bully me like this too?"

"When have I ever bullied you like this? You're clearly just taking advantage of..."

Realizing what had happened, Yuan Siyin huddled in his arms and fell silent, meek and submissive like a quail, a stark contrast to her previous arrogant and domineering demeanor.

When did you think of that?

Yuan Siyin, like a dead pig that's not afraid of boiling water, decided to get to the bottom of it.

Just as they raised their heads, they saw arrows flashing with cold light slicing through the air and hurtling straight toward the two of them, their speed astonishing.

Seeing the arrow already upon her, Yuan Siyin's eyes sharpened. With a flick of her wrist, she untied a golden whip from her waist, swiftly flicked it out, and wrapped it around the arrow. The arrow, as if it had eyes, grazed past Yuan Siyin's side and embedded itself in the ground with a clang.

Now, not caring whether she would anger him, Yuan Siyin reached out and pushed him hard, intending to make him find a place to hide. Unexpectedly, Yu Shiyan was not prepared at all and staggered two steps before falling to the ground.

Yu Shiyan: ?

Yuan Siyin: ?

Are you really such a delicate flower?

Did you carelessly not flash it?

Before Yuan Siyin could continue to grumble in her heart, the men in black, realizing they had already alerted the enemy, leaped over the wall together. The swords in their hands gleamed brightly, their cold light flashing in the sunlight, making them particularly dazzling.

Seeing the group rush towards her with lightning speed after landing, Yuan Siyin felt a slight panic.

Although the original owner of this body was skilled in martial arts, she was, after all, a woman, and these burly men looked fierce and menacing, not to be trifled with.

Moreover, this was her first time facing someone head-on. She could barely scare people away normally, so why did she suddenly switch to hard mode and start fighting?

She's just a lazy, unskilled office worker like me!

Yuan Siyin wanted to cry but had no tears.

Seeing Yuan Siyin retreating step by step amidst the flashing swords without being harmed in the slightest, Yu Shiyan frowned, probably already knowing the purpose of this group's arrival.
