It was rare of Xu Weilai to muster up her courage, ignore her feelings of embarrassment and forget about her fears to take the initiative in their relationship. After being teased despite her efforts, she became enraged over her embarrassment again. "I'm not in a hurry at all!" she hissed through gritted teeth.
When Gu Yu saw how furious she was, he leaned over and lifted her petite, chiselled chin to plant a pacifying kiss on her lips. "Rest early," he whispered.
Unable to resist his tenderness, Xu Weilai's feelings of rage faded off despite herself and she did not continue to dwell on the topic. Instead, she remarked lazily, "What about you? Aren't you going to bed? You've had a long day too."
An unidentified emotion flashed across Gu Yu's eyes and he tucked her loose hair behind her ear before he replied casually, "I still have some matters to attend to. You can head to bed first. Don't wait up for me."
