Yan Huan felt sleepy. Her fingers were still on Lu Yi's chest, feeling his heartbeat. That was her fort, the impenetrable fort that would keep her safe.
"Huanhuan…" Lu Yi played with her hair.
"Hmm?" Yan Huan opened her eyes. She had spoken too much and was now sleepy.
"Who was I to you in your previous life?" Lu Yi pinched a few strands of her hair, curious as to what kind of relationship they had in their previous life.
"I was your cousin-in-law," replied Yan Huan. The sleepiness must have gotten to her, for she replied honestly without a second thought, but she felt a sharp pain in her scalp right as the words left her lips. Her mind was crystal clear again from the shock.
She quickly sat up, shoulders drooping. She just made a shocking revelation. Everything she said before this was acceptable to Lu Yi, but not this.
This was something Lu Yi would never accept.
