Zhou Shuang’s expression darkened. “Sissy Lu. What did you say?”

Lu Yinan seductively curled his lips. His smile was always so alluring, especially his eyes—it seemed hypnotizing.

“Let’s go. Doesn’t he love to drink? For today onwards, I’ll make him drink every day so that he will listen to me.”

He grabbed Zhou Shuang’s wrist and led her in the direction where her car he last parked her car.

He had somehow startled Zhou Shuang, and she stumbled along. After a few steps, she bent to look at his hand before glancing at his face.

She really felt that if he had worn those period costumes, he would fit into that era. His features were too good-looking and bewitching.

“Zhou Shuang, as a woman, how can your wrist be so thick?” Lu Yinan examined Zhou Shuang’s wrist as he squeezed her skin. He glanced at her with a look of disdain.

Zhou Shuang was staring at him and unexpectedly, their eyes met.

Zhou Shuang quickly averted her gaze and bowed her head.

Lu Yinan surveyed her in amusement and grinned slyly. “Did you regret rejecting me the more you look at me?” remarked Lu Yinan without a hint of shyness in his voice.

Zhou Shuang was speechless…

Even her ears turned red at his remarks and her embarrassment turned into anger. Zhou Shuang flung her hand away and glared at him. “Are you out of your job!?” bellowed Zhou Shuang.

Wasn’t he planning to get back to work? And he even declared that he would make her father drunk from today onwards.

Wasn’t he a doctor? He didn’t have to work?

Lu Yinan pouted and replied brusquely, “If I don’t get you back, I won’t even have a home to return to. Not to mention a job.”

He knew his grandfather always kept his word.

They were engaged in a banter. Although it was a just short distance, they felt as though they would never reach their destination.

The sky fell dark and Zhou Shuang glanced askew at Lu Yinan’s face. His face seemed to glow in the sunset.

She asked, “You’re really afraid of your grandfather.”

Lu Yinan nodded in assent. “Yeah, everyone in our family does. His command is an imperial edict.”

It wasn’t fear but more of a sign of respect.

Zhou Shuang frowned and asked, “He is really adorable. Why is everyone afraid of your grandfather?”

Lu Yinan laughed. “Looks like both of you have an affinity.”

Zhou Shuang didn’t understand his words. “What do you mean?”

Lu Yinan replied, “He is the only person I know who complimented you. He described you as someone who was perfect and didn’t have any weaknesses. But apparently, I couldn’t see your strengths at all.”

Zhou Shuang snorted lightly. “That’s because you’re blind.”

“Will you die if you stop arguing with me?” Lu Yinan clenched his teeth and gripped Zhou Shuang’s wrist tightly.

As though he was venting his anger.

His palm was warm and soft.

When he touched her skin, it felt as though an electric current had coursed through her veins. That sensation was incredibly… amazing.

She was about to retort viciously when she unconsciously changed her tone. “I’ll feel unbearable.”

She pursed her lips and hid her face from his view.

At that moment, she appeared like a docile little woman.

“I see. You feel unbearable?” Lu Yinan gazed at Zhou Shuang with an evil grin. He nodded his head as though he had fully comprehended. “Then let me help you unwind and relax your muscles tonight so that you will feel better.”

Zhou Shuang widened her eyes in anger. “Sissy Lu, are you courting death?”

Lu Yinan dodged her fist.

From afar, against the setting sun, they seemed like a couple who was flirting with each other.
