"I'm so shocked!"

Yuxian almost pressed his face on the laptop screen. He is having a video call with Rui Jun. 

The man on the monitor brushed his face. "Honey, I'm very sorry, I forgot to tell you." Rui Jun sighed. "He was our new gardener"

Yuxian furrowed his brows as he released a long sigh, "I thought he was some kind of thief." he also brushed his face, recalling what happened at the garden.

He indeed startled after finding himself in the man's embrace, but he was thankful because it caught him him. "Well, it was his fault after all, he scared the hell out of me," he thought, making a half smile. 

Rui Jun, who was observing his facial expression, tapped the laptop screen. "Honey? Are you spacing out?" he asked.

Yuxian jolted, "Ehh?! Me?!" he fixed his facial expression and cleared his throat. "W-What is it?" he asked. "Do you need anything?" he added. 

The alpha scratched his temple. "Are you having a hard time there?"
