"Just now?" Jiang Xinli was taken aback.
Nearby, Xuan Ying opened his eyes with a malicious glint and sneered at her. "Jiang Xinli, the Little Peacock saw you sneak a bite."
As soon as he finished speaking, embarrassment flashed in Hua Xi's eyes. "Female Master… I didn't mean to blame you…"
"It's just… my heart feels a little tight… like I can't breathe…" he said, his soft voice choked with emotion, as he grabbed Jiang Xinli's hand and placed it on his firm, powerful chest.
His orange eyes grew moist. "Female Master, can you rub it for me? Please?"
"Okay," Jiang Xinli agreed without a second thought and began to gently rub his chest.
After a moment, she asked gently, "Is it a little better now?"
Hua Xi shook his head. "No. Maybe it's because of the clothes… the effect isn't very good."
"I'll put my hand inside then." Jiang Xinli, still not overthinking it, unfastened two of his buttons and slipped her fair, delicate palm inside.
