Fu Xiaotang originally wanted to keep a straight face to tease him for being so full of himself, but seeing his serious expression, she couldn’t help but burst into giggles for a long time. After catching her breath, she put on a very arrogant look and said, “Who dares to snatch him? Let them come out, and I’ll take a look at them. Anyone who dares to steal our Young Master Junjie must have a death wish!” Fang Junjie stared at her in stunned silence, slowly shaking his head and clapping his hands, saying, “I’m impressed, Sister Xiaotang, you’re awesome.” Although he was laughing on the outside, he was secretly thinking that he needed to limit Xiaotang’s contact with Sister Lan in the future, learning these “exclusive declarations of a young lady, trespassers will be killed” was amusing, but it would be bad if she started learning domestic violence too.
“So,” Fu Xiaotang leaned forward, her eyes earnest, looking like she was genuinely concerned for him, “if you don’t want to see me causing a scene at someone else’s engagement ceremony, don’t force me to go, okay?” Seeing her gentle gaze and the slight dimple on her cheek, Fang Junjie couldn’t resist embracing her fully, letting out a soft sigh, “Ah, Xiaotang, I’m really hopeless!” Although the sentence was nonsensical, Fu Xiaotang understood it, feeling a warm and tingling joy, quietly smiling as she leaned on his shoulder.
After a while, seeing no movement from her, Fang Junjie softly called, “Xiaotang?” Fu Xiaotang responded with an “mm,” turned over to a more comfortable position, and lazily closed her eyes, saying, “Don’t call me, I’m asleep.” Fang Junjie, both amused and helpless, gently turned her face towards him, whispering in her ear, “Let’s go together. With me there, what do you have to fear? Besides, there will definitely be some good drama today, you’ll regret not coming!” Fu Xiaotang stayed still for a moment without any reaction, then slowly opened one eye, only to see Fang Junjie looking at her from very close. Both burst into laughter at the sight of each other’s faces.
