Wen Zhi hesitated for a few seconds before pulling her hand back, "There's no need to hold hands once we're off the mountain. You can use the flashlight, and I'll use my phone. We can walk one in front of the other; I'll make sure to keep up closely."
Shang Hexing looked at her intently, "What kind of explanation would you like?"
The light from the flashlight cast sideways, allowing them to see each other's faces, though the view wasn't very clear.
Wen Zhi shook her head, "You misunderstand, I don't want any explanation; it's just that you..."
"Xun An was promoted by my grandfather," Shang Hexing suddenly said.
Wen Zhi was taken aback.
Shang Hexing continued, "He is loyal to me, as well as to the Han Family. Earlier, Xun An was looking at you to remember you. Within a day, your relationship with me will probably reach my grandfather's ears."
Wen Zhi was startled, and when she spoke, she stammered, "What, what kind of relationship do we have?"
