Flustered and annoyed, Sima Yu tried to pull her hand back, but she was no match for the strength of a young man who had practiced martial arts for years.
Seeing Yu Zihan staring at her, his handsome, heroic brows furrowed as if he were determined to get an answer, Sima Yu squeezed her eyes shut. She suddenly whipped something out from her waist, tossed it to him, and took a deep breath. Her face flushed red as she said, "Th-this is your birthday gift. I was afraid too many people would be giving you presents on your actual birthday and I wouldn't find a chance, so I'm giving it to you now."
'In truth, she just figured that on Yu Zihan's birthday, Lady Yu Xiang and Prime Minister Yu would surely be celebrating for him, and he would be the center of everyone's attention. She didn't want anyone else to see her giving a gift to *this guy*, which was why she was doing it early.'
