Su Jiu was forced to lean into his embrace. She could clearly hear his violently beating heart and rapid breathing. He was obviously nervous and stiff from head to toe.
She struggled a few more times, but he only held on even tighter. She almost couldn't breathe.
Slowly, breathing in the fresh and pleasant smell of his clothes, Su Jiu calmed down.
Rong Si hugged her tightly and buried his face in her fragrant hair. "I'm sorry! I shouldn't have kept it from you."
Su Jiu raised her head and glared at him. "But you did!"
Rong Si released her a little and lowered his head as if he had done something wrong. "You can punish me however you want. As long as you calm down."
"Can I hit you?"
"Sure! Hit me."
"You…" Su Jiu gritted her teeth and raised her hand as if she really wanted to slap him.
Rong Si didn't dodge. He just stood in front of her, waiting for her to hit him.
