"Mu Ruoyan".
Lin Xihe gripped Mu Ruoyan's clothes tightly, unconsciously increasing the pressure, her voice full of grievance as she softly called his name.
Even though she called him by his full name, the soft, sweet tone with a different meaning was just like when she was forced to call him "husband," which made Mu Ruoyan's heart skip a beat.
Mu Ruoyan slowly turned around, bent her knees and squatted down, her figure slightly lower than Lin Xihe sitting on the stone steps.
