"I..." Just as she was about to speak, she saw him lazily beckoning to her, "Come, get a little closer to me."
Her throat caught, and she was somewhat stupefied.
This was a cold man, he had a fairy aura, but this very same aura also lacked warmth. Yet now he was flirting with her, truly—it was a feeling of being overwhelmed by unexpected favor.
Seeing her standing there, dumbstruck, Shu Yu curved his lips, "You are Shu Yu's fiancée, so why have you been avoiding Shu Yu?"
With a long arm, he hooked her towards him without seemingly exerting much effort, and her petite body was enveloped in his embrace.
Pressing her head onto his shoulder, his hand was cold, as was his embrace, emitting the bitter scent of medicinal herbs that also contained a hint of a refreshing mint-like fragrance.
When he spoke, his chest vibrated too.
"Shu Yu suddenly remembers, these past days you've attended to me tirelessly, yet Shu Yu has never formally thanked you. You've worked hard these days."
