Shang Ruyi shuddered all over.
Even though she was about to fall, she gritted her teeth and used her last bit of strength to struggle: "Let go!"
Those hands stiffened slightly, as if subconsciously wanting to release, yet seemed to linger, hesitating about something. Meanwhile, a cautious voice came from outside.
"Young Madam?"
It was Wo Xue.
It turned out she had been outside the door all along and only dared to speak after hearing Shang Ruyi's low call.
Shang Ruyi raised her head and immediately said, "Wo Xue, come in!"
The hands behind her trembled once more and finally let go just before the door was pushed open. As soon as Shang Ruyi's body wobbled, she was embraced by the rushing Wo Xue—however, she was somewhat unaware of her strength, pressing on Shang Ruyi's already fiery skin, causing her to tremble with pain.
Yu Wenqian instinctively reached out again, but seeing Shang Ruyi avoiding him, he hesitated only for a moment before lowering his hand.
