“Okay, I’m ready.” Shen Jiao nodded, then bowed deeply in a serious manner. “I admit defeat.”
His attitude was very proper, his expression was quite appropriate, and his tone was overly sincere.

She really didn't want to be hit. It would be better if she were beaten to death, but she was most afraid that she would be beaten to the point of near death and become a vegetable who couldn't take care of herself. That would be truly tragic.

Shen Jiao simply gave up: "I can kill you even without fighting."
Ji Yan's lips curled into a wicked smile. "Alright, come and kill me now."
Shen Jiao: "Okay, then I'll still call."
Ji Yan: "..."

He also remembered that once the two of them escorted each other until dawn, and finally they made a date to watch the sunrise.
