"Xiao Yichen, let go of me," Lin Wan began to resist and struggled against his hold. "It's not appropriate for others to witness you like this."
Though Lin Wan wanted to specify that it wasn't suitable for Bai Lu to witness this scene, she refrained from mentioning Bai Lu directly in front of Xiao Yichen. Instead, she vaguely referred to "someone else."
"Inappropriate?" Xiao Yichen responded slowly, locking eyes with Lin Wan. He continued, "What's inappropriate about it?"
Lin Wan found herself at a loss for words. Anxious and simultaneously yearning for a display of affection, she met Xiao Yichen's gaze. Attempting to convey her feelings, she said, "Of course, it's not suitable for your beloved to witness this. You brought her here for dinner today, not…"
Before Lin Wan could finish her sentence, she observed Xiao Yichen's face darken entirely. Swiftly, she felt a compelling force pulling her forward.
