At this very moment, Huo Jinyan felt as though he was a thief.
He had stolen time to be alone with Lu Ning behind other people's backs, and without Lu Ning even knowing.
He gazed down at Lu Ning's fair face and felt a tinge of guilt and confusion.
In his opinion, the act of stealing a kiss was very unbecoming. Even if he loved her, he ought to have obtained her consent before he behaved intimately with her.
However, in that momentary daze he had lost control of his senses.
He liked Lu Ning, and even kissed her secretly, but he was still at a loss about his own future.
He knew his own circumstances very well, and there was danger lurking all around him.
He did not even know if he would be assassinated one day.
If Lu Ning were to be by his side at that time, he had no idea if a girl like her could continue to live a safe and uneventful life.
