Huo Beijiang smiled bitterly. Was this what he deserved for his actions? From a young age, he had been domineering and authoritarian, always expecting others to accommodate him. Yet now, because of a young girl, he was forced to swallow his pride.
This was completely against his usual style.
"What are you looking at?" Jiang Nanfei felt uncomfortable under his gaze. Realizing their posture wasn't quite right, she quickly stepped back, only for him to grab her wrist and pull her forward, pulling her directly into his embrace.
"Thump... thump..." The rapid beating of her heart caused her slight pain.
"Let go of me."
"Easy now! Stop squabbling," Huo Beijiang said, as if pacifying a child. "I came to talk to you about something important."
"Then say it after letting go."
