Yang Ning, I want you!

"Stop teasing me!" Yang Ning protested, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment as she covered her face with her hands. "I wasn't the one who bought it. I just found it among the items confiscated from the maids' quarters. I was curious about what it was. I also didn't know that it was this kind of book."

Zheng Liang chuckled at her excuses and found her puffed-up, blushing cheeks adorable. Due to her embarrassment, she couldn't even bring herself to look at him. Yet, in his eyes, this image of her, flustered and shy, only added to her charm.

Seeing that she was on the verge of tears from his teasing and embarrassment, he decided to cease his playful banter and walked towards her. Placing the book on the side table, he gently took hold of her shoulders and shook her slightly, urging her to look up at him.
