Instantly, Cheng Yu's expression darkened, his fingers that were caressing my earlobe tightened, "Who allowed you to pry?"
Threads of pain spread across my ear.
Having been a lover for so many years, I've become extremely sensitive to others' emotions.
Cheng Yu is very displeased right now.
It seems like the matter of his first love is very likely true.
I averted my gaze, explaining, "I heard about it unintentionally, rest assured I know my place."
I'm just a lover that Cheng Yu momentarily fancies, the most important thing as a lover is to not meddle in affairs that aren't one's concern.
Our relationship has always been transactional, and it's even more important to adhere to our roles.
I've always done well in these years, but just now, I crossed a line.
Cheng Yu withdrew his hand, and the atmosphere in the car grew heavier.
A wet sensation brushed by my ear, I reached out to touch it, and a piercing pain made me frown.
