Feeling the warmth and softness from his back, Sun Zhe's rationality gradually faded, and his frigid body began to warm up.
"Miss Chen, you…"
"I know how terrifying the Blazing Fire Profound Ice Palm is," Chen Ruoyi interrupted, her voice serious. "If something happens to you and we lose your protection, Xiaolong and I will never make it out of Celestial Prison Mountain."
"Besides, you saved our lives before. I'm willing to repay you."
"After tonight, we'll just pretend nothing happened."
Hearing this, Sun Zhe slowly turned and pulled her into an embrace.
"Thank you."
"Don't thank me. I should be the one thanking you." A blush crept up Chen Ruoyi's cheeks as she gently shook her head, burying her face in his chest.
"Dr. Sun, please, begin."
"Mm."
