"Heyu?" Lu Yi called out with an unmistakable tone of worry, noticing the reluctance in Shen Heyu's eyes.
"Doctor Lu." She responded, her voice tinged with grievance.
The grievance was too apparent, Pei Yansi caught it immediately.
He was initially just angry about her resistance towards him, but now it had turned into fury. He hugged Shen Heyu tighter and tighter until she even began to find it hard to breathe.
"Why are you upset?" he lowered his head and kissed her earlobe gently. It appeared to be a kiss, but he was actually whispering into her ear, audible only to the two of them, "Do you want your little lover to save you? Do you still not understand the situation?"
Shen Heyu felt a sticky wetness at her earlobe and shuddered.
Lu Yi asked, "What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable? Come over to me." He reached out his hand to her, intending to pull her towards him.
