Chapter 57: Lu Youxi's face crashed into Zhou Shuyan's chest

Lu Youxi's face involuntarily reddened, and her ears felt intensely hot.

The flush spread from her ears down to her neck.

She subconsciously struggled to pull her hand away, but her effort was so slight that to Zhou Shuyan, it felt no different from a tickle.

Still, Zhou Shuyan noticed the strength of her pull and looked down, puzzled, only to freeze for a moment.

He saw that Lu Youxi's hand was clasped in his own.

His skin had darkened a bit from helping Grandma Xu with chores every day, which made Lu Youxi's skin appear even whiter by contrast, as if he was holding a soft piece of tofu in his palm.

Zhou Shuyan experienced a brief moment of mental blankness, and without any thought, he instinctively pulled Lu Youxi's hand closer to his eyes, examining it carefully. He blurted out, "We both work outdoors every day, and you've been in the sun too. How come you're still so pale?"

Lu Youxi's face turned "whoosh" red, bright as a boiled shrimp.

She felt like she was being teased.
