"Mr. Yu, I don't understand what you're saying... ah..."
Lu Fengxuan deliberately feigned ignorance, but her words were cut off mid-sentence as the man in front of her suddenly made a move.
His large hands clamped around her slender waist, lifting her effortlessly off the ground as her feet left the floor.
"Still playing dumb with me," Yu Chiyin lowered his head, their gazes leveling, "Do you really think that just because you've put on this disguise, cut your hair, and skulk around without looking me in the eye, I wouldn't be able to recognize you?"
He closed in inch by inch, his forehead nearly touching hers, his warm breath fanned her face at close range.
Lu Fengxuan turned her head away, "Mr. Yu, you've mistaken me for someone else, I am Nan Ke, please, let me go."
"Nan Ke?" Yu Chiyin squinted his eyes, and after a few seconds, he released his hold, letting her down, "But why do I feel like you look familiar, a bit like my wife?"
