Eliminating a love rival

Ji Yao's eyes flashed with emotion as he squeezed Rui Fei's hand. He was terrified, terrified of Rui Fei misunderstanding him but how can one explain this?

He knew what he wanted to say but the words couldn't arrange themselves in his mind properly so he ended up shaking his head while rubbing Rui Fei's hand with his thumb.

Rui Fei whose eyes were red on the brink of tears sighed with a nervous laugh as he said, "I knew it. It was just lying to me. So this compatibility thing was all a lie..... haha ha I am so relieved." As he said this his facial expression visibly relaxed as he lowered his eyes.

But when he felt Ji Yao tighten his hold on his hand Rui Fei's muscles tensed up again and his heart sank. "It's.... it's, it's true. I... I can't touch anyone besides you... it's my nature, I..., he said but Rui Fei's hand slipped down off Ji Yao's face his expression distraught like he had been stabbed with a sharp knife.
