With this in mind, she held her breath and raised her eyes. However, she saw Yin Jiujin staring at the calluses on her palm that had faded quite a bit, with a complicated expression.
His thumbs were still stroking her.
Suddenly, Yan Jinyu's heart seemed to have been burned by something. She retracted her hand abruptly.
It was rare to see a look of bewilderment on the face of "Chi", the number one killer. "Um, after using the medicine you sent, my hand feels much better."
With that said, she moved away from Yin Jiujin.
Yin Jiujin's slightly furrowed brows had yet to relax when he saw her retreat. She looked like she wished she could get as far away from him as possible. She slowly retracted her hand and curled her fingers into fists. Her frown deepened. "You're sitting so far away from me. Are you afraid of me?"
Yan Jinyu's eyes widened.
Afraid?
How was that possible?
She had not known what fear was like for a very long time.
