Shan Xiaoya stood in the courtyard, immersed in her singing, as if entering the realm of the lyrics. She gracefully waved her arm and waist, creating beautiful dance moves, accompanied by her usual cold gaze. She looked like a fairy who had descended to the mortal world…
Hu Yannan’s joyful mood instantly vanished upon seeing the still-proud Shan Xiaoya. He had expected a woman who would be in a sorry state, even kneeling and begging for mercy. Instead, she stood there composedly, singing and dancing.
Not only was she not disheveled, but he felt that if he were to intrude now, it would disrupt her elevated mood.
Shan Xiaoya seemed to sense something and suddenly went silent, coldly looking towards the treetop where Hu Yannan was hidden. Hu Yannan met her gaze coldly, and the two engaged in a silent standoff. After a long while, Shan Xiaoya found it uninteresting and withdrew her gaze, turning away and walking into the house.
Hu Yannan felt an uncontrollable desire to conquer her composure, her indifference, and her arrogance. He leaped down, quickly blocking her path. Shan Xiaoya reflexively stopped, took a step back, and looked up to meet his eyes.
Shan Xiaoya said with some impatience: “General, you’re blocking my way. Even a good dog knows not to block the road.”
Hu Yannan, hearing her words, was furious and threw a slap. Shan Xiaoya, already prepared, stepped back, coldly laughing: “A gentleman uses words, not fists. So the one standing before me is a small-minded person.”
Hu Yannan hadn’t expected her to dodge so quickly. His slap missed, and he was mocked, causing his anger to rise. He narrowed his eyes dangerously and said viciously: “Dare to be so presumptuous in front of me? It seems the suffering you’ve endured isn’t enough to teach you a lesson. Since that’s the case, I’ll make sure you learn.
” He mercilessly kicked towards Shan Xiaoya’s chest…
Huoyan Nan suddenly felt that she was like a cloud on the horizon, something he could neither catch nor reach. His heart skipped a beat, and he increased the force of his hand, wrapping his other arm around her. Her warm body temperature and light body fragrance shocked him, with a belief withering away.
