It was a feeling she extremely abhorred.
An Xiaoning was then brought to the bedroom.
Xi Bolai raised his eyebrows gently and gazed at her in a nightgown. "Is the temperature alright in the room?"
"It isn't cold indeed."
"Come over."
The maids brought her forward and pressed her down on the bed.
Xi Bolai ordered the maids, "Get out, don't come in without my instruction."
"Yes, Master."
In the room now, only the two of them were left. He reached out and pinched An Xiaoning's chin, saying in a plain tone, "Why? Aren't you scared?"
"What's there to be scared of?" An Xiaoning thought of the time she and Jin Qingyue were captured in a basement and asked, "Previously, when Jin Qingyan's sister and I were captured and threatened, you were the one behind it, right?"
Xi Bolai replied instead, "Don't think that just because I captured you now, everything else was done by me. I didn't do that, I won't admit it."
