Gu Yanshen stared at the heap of bright red fruits in the enamel bowl, motionless.
His breathing came to a halt.
The surrounding air seemed to freeze as well.
Lin Wan Yi pushed the bowl forward another inch, almost touching his chin.
"Want to try?"
He didn't move, his gaze shifting from the fruits to her face.
"Where did this come from?"
"I told you, I performed a magic trick."
"Lin Wan Yi."
He called her by her full name.
"I'm not joking."
His voice was deep.
"In the border defense military district, in winter, things like this don't exist."
Lin Wan Yi withdrew the bowl and took one, putting it in her mouth.
She bit into it, and juice flooded out.
"Hmm... so delicious."
She looked at him, her eyes curved into crescents.
"If you don't eat, I'll finish them all myself."
Gu Yanshen grabbed her wrist.
The strawberries in the bowl wobbled.
"Answer my question."
"Is this safe?"
Lin Wan Yi understood.
He wasn't probing about the source, he was worried about her.
