Jiang Xinli clung to Xuan Ying, panting for a moment before tilting her head back to look at him.
Liquid moonlight cascaded down, spilling over the man's tall, slender frame and bathing him in a faint, gentle halo.
The coldness in his deep, ice-blue eyes vanished, replaced by a searing heat tinged with desire.
For a moment, Jiang Xinli's gaze grew dazed.
The Xuan Ying she saw tonight made her heart flutter; she wanted to immerse herself in his refreshing, oceanic presence all night long.
But—
"ROOOOAR!" A deafening tiger's roar echoed from downstairs.
Jiang Xinli jolted, snapping back to her senses.
"Um... I have something I need to do tonight. I have to clear things up with Sheng Tianze."
The air around him instantly turned frigid.
"So, you do care more about him, is that it?!" Xuan Ying's voice was cold as he retracted the ice pillar. With a sudden exertion of force, he yanked her into his arms.
Jiang Xinli: "..."
