Listening to his teasing tone, Yu Zhi lowered her head further, her fingertips clutching his coat tightly: "I'm not shy, it's just too hot."
The heating was to blame.
Otherwise, her face wouldn't have turned red.
"A shower will cool you down." Shi Wei kissed her soft, rosy earlobe, his gaze falling on the skin below her neck.
The half-revealed view made his Adam's apple move restlessly.
"..." Yu Zhi pressed her lips together tightly.
She neither agreed nor refused.
Under the man's guidance, the atmosphere gradually became more intimate.
The room's temperature rose again, faint rustling sounds drifted from the living room all the way to the stairs, and then dissipated along with the sound of a door closing.
On the coffee table, a red cake with one tiny corner cut off still rested quietly, and the two intertwined swans atop it maintained their original pose.
Their closeness rendered everything around them an illusion. Enveloped in their private world, they shared their joy.
