She opened her eyes.

She didn't even realize when she fell asleep in his arms.

He must have slept all night, because his body was still soaked with sweat. His thin, plain black robe was now stained with dark and light patches of sweat.

I didn't notice him sweating last night.

"How are you? Are you alright?" She jumped up.

Because I care, I'm a little excited.

Having endured such a painful night, he should be physically alright now, right?

Xiao Tang thought to herself, glancing at his expression.

Di Jingling nodded, then shook his head.

It's obvious to anyone that it's an act.

Xiao Tang, however, still played along with his act, asking, "Where do you feel unwell?"

Look at my gentle demeanor, look at how considerate I am, are you satisfied now?

I thought the man would just give up on the performance, but to my surprise, he suddenly clutched his chest and said, "It hurts."

"???"

"Also, my heart is beating really fast, Tangtang, do you want to listen to it?"

Xiao Tang continued to harbor doubts.

But faced with the mockery in his eyes, she gritted her teeth and continued acting.

Faced with his overly direct gaze, she simply pressed her ear against it.

I want to hear what's making his chest.

thump thump...

The powerful sound of a heartbeat reverberated in my ears.

This is enough to prove that the villain is in good health and has no problems whatsoever.

She slightly pursed her lips, and through the fabric, she buried her face in his chest, opening her mouth to reveal her fierce little tiger teeth.

Di Jingling also realized that she might have overacted a bit.

A pang of pain shot through my chest.

She really went all out; when they parted, she bit him relentlessly in the carriage, even harder than last time.

He pursed his lips. "Tangtang, even murdering your own husband wouldn't be as ruthless as you."
