Zhu E looked incredulously at the man in front of her, her face dumbfounded; it had been just over a year since they last met, yet it felt like a lifetime had passed.
Chen Yi gave her a gentle smile and called out softly, "Zhu E… Long time no see."
The enchanting woman stiffened, then suddenly took two steps forward and fell down.
"My lord, Zhu E is… gravely injured… cough cough."
Chen Yi was shocked and quickly supported her shoulders. Upon checking her pulse, he found it chaotic, and he immediately heard her cough lightly again. Looking down, he noticed her eyes were shining with a different glow.
So it turns out she said that intentionally to fall into his arms.
How… how alluring...
Chen Yi, having been in a life of simplicity for so long, found himself somewhat unaccustomed.
As she coughed lightly, her delicate body pressed closer to his, her actions natural, making her seem very dependent on Chen Yi.
