Mingshen beamed. "I cannot believe that you would pull me out of the room like this. Did you suddenly crave for some romance, my dear?"

He grinned and took a steamy step closer, flailing his arms wide. "Come and jump for a hug right in~ My arms always welcome you."

"Did you perhaps think I was joking my dear?"

Her eyes narrowed. "Don't take me for a fool, Mingshen! Right when Dong Haoyu is supposed to be arrested, something like this happens. Sounds awfully convenient. Did you…did you plan this?"
