Guan Xinyu let out a long sigh and her whole body became soft.
A pair of powerful arms held her in her arms.
A low voice rang out—
"What nightmare did you have? I scared you like this?"
"Shangguan Rui, when did you... come back?" Guan Xinyu spoke with lingering fear, her voice dry, and she had not yet fully awakened from the nightmare.
"Four o'clock."
Four o'clock?
Guan Xinyu looked at the wall clock: 5:40.
Shangguan Rui came back so early?
"You've been... here?"
"Well, the novel is pretty good." Shangguan Rui glanced at the table in front of him.
It was a monster novel, about monsters.
"oh."
"Don't girls like to read romance novels?"
"Those... are meaningless." Guan Xinyu opened her eyes.
She already has a lover as good as Li Ye, and she doesn't need to find her own perfect male lead from the novel.
"It's not interesting? When Guan Liye dies, he no longer believes in love?" He hooked her hair scattered on her cheeks behind her head, and Shangguan Rui's eyes flashed, with a faint sharpness.
If this woman dares to answer yes, he will definitely dig Guan Liye’s grave and then strangle her to death!
"...No." She wasn't that paranoid.
"Since you don't believe in love, why has the emotional world been blank for more than three years?" Shangguan Rui asked.
He always wanted to know that Guan Xinyu's real thoughts had never been able to find the entry point.
Today is a good opportunity.
Guan Xinyu glanced at Shangguan Rui and didn't understand why he was interested today, so she started discussing the topic of love with herself.
For him, isn’t “love” insulated?
"I just met the right person..." Despite his doubts, Guan Xinyu still answered.
"Not yet?" Shangguan Rui asked, unexpectedly finding that he was actually a little nervous.
Guan Xinyu pursed her lips and had no answer.
She doesn't know what to say.
In fact, the person who touched her feelings had already appeared.
But it's not meeting, but reunion.
Of course, Guan Xinyu couldn't tell Shangguan Rui these words.
So, the topic was changed, "The materials you bought with me last time were delivered at noon."
“…”
Damn woman!
How dare I change the topic.
Shangguan Rui dived his chest and almost turned the table up in anger.
Seeing her look of lingering fear, she endured it.
"You don't need to tell me such a small thing." Shangguan Rui said coldly, his tone was quite unhappy.
Guan Xinyu frowned, not understanding where she had messed with him.
She didn't say anything too much just now.
Did Shangguan Rui... feel angry outside and feel in a bad mood?
Guan Xinyu looked carefully—
Sure enough, Shangguan Rui had sharp black eyes and a heavy face.
