Chapter 47: I Like It When You Scream for Help

Ji Weixi somehow had the feeling that the man approaching her wanted to hit her. Frightened for her life, she hurriedly retreated.

However, her damned leg did not listen and slipped.

Li Shaoling rushed toward her, his hands reacting as swiftly as his eyes to catch her waist.

He frowned. "Are you an idiot? Why do you keep falling?"

"…Do you think I want that? It's your fault in the first… Ah! Help!"

Li Shaoling had picked her up before she could finish.

He was too tall. Slightly fearful of heights, she screamed without thinking.

"Help?" Li Shaoling lifted a brow. "I like it when you scream that… in bed, that is."

Flushing in embarrassment, Ji Weixi quickly put her hand over his mouth. She carefully scanned around them, afraid of others catching their conversation.

Li Shaoling's eyes were curving in a smile, exuding a gentleness that others could drown in.
