Having said her piece of mind, Li Yao walked towards Mu Lihai and took his hand in hers. She pulled him outside but he suddenly wouldn't budge. 

Mu Lihai placed his strong big palm on her head to keep her looking down on the floor. He didn't want her to see his face. He might scare her. 

"You go out first, wait for me." he said quietly. 

"But Lihai-" he hushed her as he caressed her cheek lovingly, making Li Yao unable to look up to his face. She felt comfortable in his arms after letting off steam towards her grandmother.

"Okay.." Li Yao nodded and she didn't even took one more glance before leaving the study.

Li Yao was really mad this time. She couldn't face her grandmother in such a condition so she better get as far away to clear her head off.
