"I love you,"
Xiang Yu reached into his sleeve and pulled out something. It was the jade pendant hanging from a slender silver chain. He held it up, letting the morning light streaming through the window illuminate its beauty. It was a good thing he bought it; otherwise, how was he supposed to coax this big cat?
Han Xin's breath caught in his throat at the sight. He had no particular interest in jewellery except the prayer beads his mother brought for him from the temple, but if it was from Yu Yu, he would love it. The peace was especially exquisite. Without thinking, he reached out, his fingers itching to touch the cool jade. But Xiang Yu, with a playful smirk, pulled it away, dangling it from his finger.
"Uh-uh-uh," he teased, his voice low and sultry. "Unlock the handcuffs first then you can have it."
