"Sweetheart, can I give you a little bit of advice," he asked carefully.
"What?"
"Next time, when you want to go on such mini-adventures or if you feel like exploring the world, then would you mind taking me along with you?" he asked sweetly.
Su Yanruo frowned. Raising her brows she asked, "Why? So that you can irritate me all the time…"
"Of course not, sweetheart," he chuckled. "I just want to be with you and protect you."
She scoffed loudly, "Well, I can protect myself. I don't need you."
"I do," he said.
Huh?
"What?" she asked with a cute puzzled look.
"Sweetheart, I know how strong and brave you are. You might not my protection but I need you to protect me," he said with a small chuckle.
Su Yanruo paused in her steps. Without her knowing, her heart skipped another beat. He might have said those words in a joking manner, but his eyes were deadly serious. He meant the words that he said.
