Her embrace turned Nan Sichen's body stiff. He stood frozen in place, unable to speak for a long time. He could only feel the small person behind him as a hot iron, causing a faint pain in his back.
After what seemed like an eternity, he turned around, drawing her into his arms and let out a sigh, "I know."
"So, are you angry?" Qin Yin looked up at him with her innocent face.
"No." Nan Sichen pursed his lips.
"Then you'll accompany me."
Nan Sichen finally gave in with a reluctant chuckle, "Didn't I already agree to that?"
Qin Yin burst out laughing, playfully coquettish in Nan Sichen's arms, "Can I bring you along whenever I'm with Jun Nian?"
"No."
"Huh? Why not?"
"I'm very busy."
Qin Yin: "..."
Seeing Qin Yin pouting unhappily, he added, "I trust you!"
Her eyes instantly sparkled, "Nan Sichen, do you really trust me?"
"I trust you!" Nan Sichen reiterated.
"But...." Qin Yin wanted to make sure that his 'I trust you' was genuine.
