Chapter 427: Marry the Chicken Follow the Chicken, Marry the Dog Follow the Dog

"I want to hug you."

Lin Yan's body tensed slightly at this answer, as she too longed to lean on a man's shoulder.

The two pairs of eyes, each harboring their own thoughts, collided, but Lin Yan was the first to avert her gaze elsewhere.

"I have to go. I won't be able to pick up Ou from school this evening, so please arrange that."

Lu Chenyuan placed one hand on Lin Yan's shoulder, exerting a bit of force.

"Understand, it's spring, the season of mating."

Lu Chenyuan's rare sense of humor brought a small smile to Lin Yan's lips, and she finally couldn't help but laugh.

She stared at Lu Chenyuan's hand, then lifted her gaze upwards.

Lu Chenyuan raised his hand, back down, and opened his palm, looking at it.

"A hand can't solve it."

Lin Yan didn't believe that Lu Chenyuan hadn't touched a woman in years; he wasn't the kind of man to exercise such self-control.
