"You can try!" Shi Yi gritted her teeth, enunciating each word with difficulty.
She was not a pushover who could be easily manipulated. If this man dared to do something rash, she wouldn't let him off easily!
Leng Yixiu had thought Shi Yi would back down, but he didn't expect her to be so stubborn. The man was momentarily dazed, recalling someone from years ago with the same prideful temperament, refusing to admit defeat or give in, proud like a peacock.

The door behind her opened unexpectedly, startling Shi Yi. She stumbled backward, ready for the pain of falling, only to land in a warm embrace instead.
Shi Yi froze for a moment, then realized a large hand was tightly holding her waist, the warmth of the man's palm seeping through her thin dress, spreading to every part of her body.
The atmosphere became somewhat ambiguous.
