Huangfu Jue spoke up from behind her.
"But I'm not fine!"
She unconsciously halted her steps, then, she proceeded forward again.
The man's palm stretched out, grabbing her wrist in one go. Gan Yuan was pulled back a step, her high-heel wobbling, nearly causing her to stumble.
Huangfu Jue timely extended his arm to support her waist, strategically blocking her path, "Ayuan, what exactly are you trying to do?"
Gan Yuan shook off his hand, quickly glancing around. There was a dead end behind her, and there was no one behind him. She quietly breathed a sigh of relief, "What I want to do is none of your business."
"Is that so?"
Huangfu Jue took a step forward, feeling the man's breath closing in, she hurriedly stepped back.
"You... don't come any closer!"
This was the Marquis Residence; if he were as impulsive as last time and got discovered, all her efforts would be for naught.
