Yu Zi’s face immediately turned crimson red. “Yan… Yan Huaian…”

She had difficulty breathing, and not because he was stifling her. It was just that he was so close that it made her tense up.

Her heart was thumping loudly as her whole body started burning up.

She did not have much energy left in her from the start, so the second she got close to him, she lost all her strength. She felt like a soft flimsy noodle. His whole body was covered with a light lemon scent which smelled refreshing and pleasant.

She probed around trying to push him away, but it only made him hold her even tighter.

Yan Huaian could feel that softness of hers stuck to his ribs, and it made him felt like he had ants in his pants.

However, once he thought about what had happened in Yue Jingchen’s ward, he kept his head under control and became angry again.

He hugged her and lifted her up into the air until her feet were no longer on the ground. The action startled Yu Zi.

She whimpered slightly and clasped onto his neck with both hands subconsciously. She blushed, and just when she was about to speak, he spanked her butt ferociously.

It was not a delightful prank. He had purposely exerted force, as if he were a father teaching his child a lesson for being disobedient. The spanking was especially hard, and she could feel immediately feel the soreness after being hit.

Yu Zi’s wrist was hurting enough, but now her butt had also smacked by him. It was so sore that her tears almost started coming out.

She blushed out of shame. It was daytime and they were outdoors, so how could he just pick her up and smack her so openly.

If people were to see… if they saw this…

Furthermore, she was not a child!

He was a grown man as well. How could he just smack her buttocks!

It was too outrageous!

“What are you doing!” Yu Zi looked up and asked him embarrassedly.

Then, she saw as Yan Huaian pursed his lips sternly. When he heard her question, a sneer suddenly appeared on his face. “You’re still asking me this? I’m the one that’s supposed to ask you what you were doing!”

Yan Huaian held her with one hand, with her feet still off the ground. At the same time, he grabbed her left wrist with his other hand, being careful to avoid the wound on her wrist. “There are so many other ways to solve a problem, so why did you have to resort to this? And you dared to tell me not to approach you or you’d cut yourself! Why are you so bold?!”

Yan Huaian got even angrier now and released her left wrist. Then, he raised his hand and smacked her once more.

“How dare you! How dare you take your own body as a joke? If Yue Jingchen didn’t agree, would you have really died for him?” Yan Huaian said in fury.

“You… You’ve been angry this whole time because of this?” Yu Zi asked in a low voice.

“You’re too bold for your own good!” Yan Huaian did not reply her question and hit her once more. However, the strength had lessened as compared to the first smack. “You dare to hurt yourself right in front of me. How could I just stand by and watch as you hurt yourself? Did you consider that? No matter who it is or how huge the problem was, it isn’t worth you doing such a thing!”

Yan Huaian almost became blinded by rage. Especially when he looked at the bandage around her left wrist. It felt like a stab to his eyes.

She finally knew the reason why he was upset. It was only because he treasured her and could not bear the thought of her hurting herself.

He valued her more than she did.

At that moment, there was an unspeakable joy in Yu Zi’s heart. She no longer felt wronged, and even though she still felt a slight bit of pain, it could not trounce the happiness she was experiencing.

Judging from his reaction of being so concerned and nervous for her. He probably had feelings for her, too, right? At the very least, she had a place in his heart, and he cared about her.

She was so joyous that she wanted to laugh out loud, but upon seeing Yan Huaian’s anger, coupled with the fact that it looked like he was not getting over it anytime soon, Yu Zi held it in and refused to show her emotions.

Thus, she said in a docile manner, “I’m sorry. I’ll never do it again. Don’t be angry, please. This will be the first and last time. I won’t take myself so lightly anymore.”

Seeing that Yan Huaian’s face still looked gloomy, Yu Zi said in a lighter voice, “Can you forgive me this time, please?”

She subconsciously rubbed herself lightly against his arms, like a young lady acting coquettishly.

Yan Huaian lowered his head to look at her as the stiff cold expression on his face slowly melted away. The solemnness he had displayed up until was slowly softened up by her warm gaze.

He could feel her moving about in his embrace like a spoiled child and softly rubbing herself against him.

Yan Huaian looked at her blushing face and felt his mouth go dry. He swallowed once and thought about her confession in front of Yue Jingchen from earlier.

Admitting that she liked him in front of Yue Jingchen made Yan Huaian’s heart beat uncontrollably.

He felt that it was not just something she said to fob Yue Jingcheng off. He noticed how she looked when she stood in front of Yue Jingchen earlier and the way she had said it.

He knew that she was speaking the truth.

Nothing pleased him more than the fact that the lady he liked was able to return his feelings.

Moreover, when he thought about how she had suddenly gotten closer to him yesterday, it was enough to convince him that she liked him back.

There was a smile forming on the corners of his mouth as he thought about this. Without further explanation, he lowered his head and seized her lips.

Yu Zi’s eyes widened in surprise as Yan Huaian continued by pressing her against the car door. He pressed against her forcefully strength as he kissed her, whilst Yu Zi’s hands simultaneously clutched his shoulder. The astonishment she felt slowly dissipated, and she quickly wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing him back.

This was how it felt to kiss him. Her heart was beating crazily as if it were about to jump out of her chest. Her face turned redder whilst her ears became scalding hot. At the same time, she noticed that there was a slight lemon taste in his mouth that was starting to fill hers.

Yan Huaian only released her after a while. His forehead was still stuck to her forehead, their breathing unsteady and rapid. They stood there for a while, desperately gasping for air as their breaths occasionally intertwined.

Yan Huaian looked down and saw her long eyelashes fluttering.

He smiled as he hugged Yu Zi tightly in his arms, unwilling to let go.

“You like me?” Yan Huaian chuckled as he asked. He circled his arms around her waist tightly before pinching her lightly with his long finger.

Yu Zi flexed her lower abdomen. She felt ticklish from his pinches, but it felt burning hot as well.

Listening to him say this, she bowed her head in embarrassment and blushed even more.

What else could Yan Huaian not understand? He could not cover the smile on his face and proceeded to kiss the corner of her eye. Then, he went all the way down to the edge of her lip, then her lips itself, and finally, her nose. He went back and forth in this manner for a while, unable to stop showering her with kisses.

Ultimately, Yu Zi could not bear with it anymore and tilted her head away. She buried herself in his neck to stop him from pecking her.

Coincidentally, his kiss landed on her ear because of the way she had tilted her head.

Yu Zi’s ears turned crimson red, and it felt scalding hot.

Yan Huaian saw her twitching ears and thought that she looked like a rabbit as she buried herself deeper into his neck.

Thus, Yan Huaian could not help but chuckle lightly, causing Yu Zu’s ears to go numb from the sound of his husky laughter.

He lowered his head again and kissed her ear part by part.

Yu Zi covered up her ears and said, “Aren’t you tired of holding on to me? Let’s… let’s go for now.”

“Alright.” Yan Huaian hugged her tightly again. Then, he lifted her up to the passenger seat and placed her on it. Her feet did not touch the ground throughout the whole process.

Because there was still some time before noon, Yu Zi wanted to go back to the office first as there was still a lot of work to do.

Therefore, Yan Huaian parked the car in front of her office and said, “I’ll pick you up from work later.”

Yu Zi nodded, but she still not used to it. It felt like the two had unknowingly become lovers.

On the other hand, Yan Huaian seemed to have adapted well to their newfound relationship.

Seeing her discomfort, Yan Huaian held her hand and squeezed it gently. “Just act like how you did before. Don’t you feel like it’s been quite natural for us, considering the way we hung out before? It was just that you were too dense and thought our relationship was a platonic one.”

Yu Zi was sluggish as she slowly asked, “So, was it not?”

Yan Huaian laughed at her dimwittedness. “I would never wake up early in the morning to prepare breakfast or cut up fruits for just anyone. I wouldn’t have used my lunchtime as overtime just so that I could get off work on time to pick someone up and go home with them. I also wouldn’t simply attach two balconies together while the other person was at work.”

Yan Huaian looked at her and chuckled. “Just so that she could be closer to me, and it’d be convenient for her to enter my house.”

Yu Zi’s jaw dropped.

It turned out that all of this, including the attachment of their balconies, had been premeditated by him!

It was just that she was dumb enough not to notice.

She was merely thinking about the fact that she liked him and wanted to chase after him.

In the end… in the end, she was the one that took the initiative to fall into his trap!

“Did you think that a man would do this for a woman, just for the sake of being her friend?” Yan Huaian asked with a smile.

Yu Zi lowered her head in embarrassment as she blushed and thought about how to answer him.

Despite all the evidence, the question still remained. When did this man start liking her?

It could not have been just a few days – she simply would not believe it.

Yan Huaian was not an impulsive person. Even if he liked someone, he would not have fallen in love at first sight.

After all, love at first sight would mean that he had just fallen for her face.

He was not the kind of superficial person who only looked at people on the surface.

If he liked a person, it would have been steadily and little by little. He would slowly discover her strong points or found that she possessed a characteristic that he admired. At some point, he would have suddenly realized that there was something about her that he liked.
