The polite thing to do right now would be to give a response but Ji Yao remained frozen like a wax figure refusing to look into Rui Fei's eyes. He was afraid if he looks in that cub's longing eyes he might wind up falling deeper into the bubbling spring of love and go as far as proposing marriage on the spot.
Rui Fei didn't care whether there was a response or not. Ji Yao's ears blossoming like cherries hanging on a tree told him everything he wanted to know. Plus he kind of enjoyed the feeling of his sweetheart eating vinegar for him though he had a gut feeling that the extent to which Ji Yao's jealousy reached leaned to the extreme end in the red zone.
