Helian Chengyan withdrew his hand and stretched his long arm to lean on the door frame, effortlessly blocking her path. His lips curled into a meaningful smile. "Is that so? But you seem quite happy to me!"
"You must be imagining this. Stop blocking my way into the house."
But Helian Chengyan remained unmoving.
Instead, he leaned down to whisper into her ear with laughter in his voice, "So pretending."
The warmth of his breath brushed her ear, causing Chi Xingye's heart to throb.
She immediately distanced herself from him.
Lifting her gaze, she couldn't help but examine him from head to toe.
Helian Chengyan was wearing a customized camel coat over a well-fitted dark suit. His tall and straight figure was even more alpha and cold with this attire, complemented by his dashing pose and the faint smile on his lips.
This demeanor was far removed from the usual noble and chilly Helian Chengyan, hinting at the teasing playfulness of a seasoned player in love.
