As he spoke, Wen Zhaonian's fingertips brushed against her cheek and went behind her ear, then gently pulled her away.
As Li Tangyan slightly raised her head in response to her movement, she leaned forward.
A slightly cool touch pressed against the corner of her lips, then quickly created a small gap between them.
You can feel the heat hitting your face with every breath.
And Wen Zhaonian's metallic voice, deliberately lowered, brought a chilling heaviness to the air.
“I didn’t say that.”
"Or are you trying to imply something to me, Chestnut Porridge?"
As Wen Zhaonian finished speaking, a low chuckle escaped his lips as he murmured his nickname, his Adam's apple bobbing once more.
On the other hand, Li Tangyan never expected that Wen Zhaonian would turn the tables on her.
My heart was beating faster and faster.
At the same time, just as she was about to retort with a flushed face, her earlobe was lightly pinched.
In an instant, a tingling sensation spread, and the words that were about to be spoken were rendered meaningless by the sudden movement, leaving the person stunned on the spot.
When she came to her senses, she met Wen Zhaonian's gaze.
And there was a hint of mockery in his gaze.
Indeed, never try to outwit a lawyer with words.
Easily abused.
Li Tangyan muttered a curse in her heart.
Then, as if still somewhat unconvinced, she raised her hand and grabbed Wen Zhaonian's clothes on both shoulders.
Then, pulling forward, Li Tangyan took a step forward as the distance between them closed again.
She rested her head against his chest, her gaze falling on the blanket on the floor, deliberately avoiding Wen Zhaonian's eyes.
The voice was very soft, as if it had vanished into the air the moment it was spoken.
"Wen Zhaonian, you can bully me all you want."
"Aren't you afraid I'll run away one day?"
In the end, she half-jokingly remarked.
Perhaps because the room was too quiet with only the two of them left, Li Tangyan lowered her eyes and her thoughts quickly began to wander.
In just a few seconds, a series of "soap operas" had already been conjured up in my mind.
At the same time, a small smile subtly curved the corners of her pursed lips.
Thinking of this, she became even more eager to see Wen Zhaonian's reaction.
She immediately looked up at Wen Zhaonian, her cheeks slightly flushed, her smiling face clearly showing that she had forgotten the little incident from before.
However, the countless assumptions that flashed through his mind completely crumbled the moment Wen Zhaonian spoke.
He raised his hand and rubbed his head, and as he spoke, his handsome eyebrows lifted slightly, almost imperceptibly.
The certainty in her words made Li Tangyan even more curious: "No, you still have a hostage with me."
"They can't escape."
"who?"
Li Tangyan blinked, her eyes darting around, and then she actually started to think about what he said.
After a while, he remembered that the little potato was still with Wen Zhaonian.
"You mean potato chips?"
At this point, Li Tangyan smiled again, then waved her hand dismissively, "This doesn't count as a hostage."
"This little guy, I think he's already 'joined the enemy camp' and doesn't want to come back."
The little potato is now playing around with the Lantern Festival every day, and he looks so happy.
They've completely forgotten they even have a human to care for them.
After saying that, Li Tangyan sighed again, feigning helplessness.
Wen Zhaonian shook his head and said slowly, "It's not that."
Who is that?
As soon as Li Tangyan finished speaking, Wen Zhaonian suddenly took a step back.
His hand, with its distinct knuckles, grasped hers and then pointed towards himself.
Just before Li Tangyan was about to break through the fog and see the truth, a smile appeared on his lips.
She uttered two words in a soft, seductive voice: "It's me."
