Fu Chengxun was surprised by how straightforward her response was. He raised an eyebrow and a smile appeared on his face.
Having discussed the "serious matter," Jiang Yining felt a bit embarrassed and nudged him, saying, "You go ahead and get busy. I'll just play on my phone."
"Are you sure you don't need me to keep you company?" Fu Chengxun asked.
Jiang Yining replied, "I'm not a kid, and besides, you're right here next to me. What else do you call company?"
"I can keep you company like this." Fu Chengxun chuckled mischievously and extended his arm, trying to pull her into his embrace.
Jiang Yining quickly reacted, reaching out and blocking him, "No thanks, I don't need it."
Fu Chengxun looked down at her hand which had landed right on his injured arm, and the pain shot from his arm straight to his heart, causing him to furrow his brow in agony.
