Suggesting Something Promiscuous

"Well, what brings you here today, Little Hamster?" Yu Zhen curiously asked. He pulled her close, hoping she would sit on his lap. But she narrowingly escaped his grasp, fleeing to the other side of the table, as if she was a mere guest in the private study.

"I've come with an idea for the Kingdom's budget," Li Xueyue stated. 

Li Xueyue didn't want to sit on his lap and convince him that way. It felt wrong… Besides, being so close to him was distracting. He'd play with the ends of her clothing, or strands of her hair, and she would lose her train of thought. It was inevitable. His fingers always worked magic upon her.

Yu Zhen raised a brow. Everyone seemed to have an idea, but not many were smart. He gestured for her to take a seat. She did so with ease, sliding into the curved wooden chair with elegance.

"What do you have in mind?"

Li Xueyue noticed he had dropped the nicknames. It was time for a serious discussion.
