Embraced, Li Hannian held the girl tightly in his arms.
...
...
A cold metal object pressed against Li Hannian's lips, and he subconsciously reached out to move it away.
When his fingers clutched the silver coin, Li Hannian suddenly snapped back to reality.
"No!"
He jerked up, pushing Chu Nanxi away.
Last time, he hadn't controlled himself, and it had led to a grave mistake.
This time, he couldn't make the same mistake again, his Xixi, he couldn't hurt her anymore.
Chu Nanxi stood there panting, still somewhat in shock at the sight of the man before her.
"Anian?!"
"I..." Li Hannian stepped forward, straightening her clothes for her, "I mean, it's late, you should rest. There's a meeting tomorrow morning, and... and I need to catch a flight in the afternoon."
Chu Nanxi hung her head, "Then... I'll go back first."
"Okay," Li Hannian replied lightly, his gaze darting around, avoiding looking at her.
