Fu Huai'an treaded carefully in a coaxing manner and sighed deliberately for dramatic effect. It was his way of giving in and showing a softer side of himself. Lin Nuan could tell he was putting in effort to make amends.
"If you had told Chu Xun you were married in the first place, she wouldn't have undressed, would she?"
Lin Nuan was still boiling with rage, and her tone was harsh.
"I intended to say that, but I didn't have the chance to bring it up! I was just about to tell her that when you came downstairs suddenly…"
Fu Huai'an was standing so close to her that, when he spoke, his breath and lips were almost brushing against Lin Nuan's lips, forcing her to lean her body back.
"So I guess I'm the one at fault for appearing at the wrong time? If something like this were to happen again, I should hole myself up in the room and not come out, how's that?"
Lin Nuan lowered her gaze and arched her back to avoid his lips.
