"Wha—what is it?" Jiang Yue nervously inquired, her tone wavering.
Luo Zhelan, with a serious expression, stated, "Seeing this side of you made my heart beat faster."
Jiang Yue's initial nervousness vanished instantly, replaced by a fierce glare aimed at Luo Zhelan.
Seeing that he made her even more upset, Luo Zhelan pointed towards his heartbeat monitor, "See? I'm not making it up."
Glancing at the monitor, Jiang Yue was taken aback to see his heart rate significantly above average, leaving her momentarily speechless.
Recognizing that he had managed to calm her slightly, Luo Zhelan gently held her hand and tenderly kissed the back of it. "Forgive me, Miss Jiang. I promise this won't happen again."
Skepticism was written all over Jiang Yue's face, evident in the furrowed brows and distrust in her eyes. She wasn't entirely convinced by his words.
