An Lan subconsciously grabbed the collar on Xu Baohan's neck.
She thought that if he were to kiss her now, she would definitely not being able to avoid it.
However, she soon noticed that the pair of dark eyes after frozen for a moment staring at her had resumed to its clarity and calmness.

An Lan also calmed down quickly. What was she thinking about earlier? She was so nervous that she thought he might have kissed her. "I said, put me down. There's still an hour for you to walk, especially the last half an hour. It's all steep slopes and stairs."
"That's why I have to hold you until the last half an hour so that you can conserve your energy," Xu Baohan replied as he carried her up a little.
An Lan took a deep breath. "It's not the moment to flaunt your superiority. You would not be able to stand it."
