Chapter 482 - 8.82 Playing Coy*
Lu Yizhou should have guessed it. His lover was the type of person who wouldn’t let himself be bullied and would remember every single grievance to pay them back ten folds. Now that Lu Yizhou had done him such an injustice, how could he be reconciled? Of course he had to retaliate to let the other know how pissed he was!
Disregarding Ellen’s furious demand, low laughter spilled out of Lu Yizhou’s lips as he hugged Ellen tighter to himself. Heavens, what should he do with this adorable little guy?
"You still dare to laugh?!" Miffed, Ellen started to struggle and try to push Lu Yizhou away.
His fragile appearance notwithstanding, Ellen’s strength should have been great. Lu Yizhou still remembered how he needed those thick unbreakable chains to keep his power in check. But now, the force that landed on Lu Yizhou’s chest and shoulders was no different than a kitten’s paws. So soft that it made him a little ticklish. No matter how he squirmed about, he just could not free himself from Lu Yizhou’s arms.
Even though Lu Yizhou’s embrace was strong, he did not actually exert any force. It shouldn’t be difficult for Ellen to free himself. Sensing how weak his lover was, Lu Yizhou was suddenly distraught with concern. He pulled away to meet Ellen’s angry glare. "Are you okay?" Cupping his face gently, Lu Yizhou inquired. "Did something happen to you back then? Did you get any injuries?"
Ellen seemed stunned by the sincere worry he found in Lu Yizhou’s eyes. After a few seconds, he looked away and grumbled under his breath. "What could have happened to me?"
"So why—" Lu Yizhou, this eternally dense and slow-witted man, unexpectedly reached enlightenment for the first time. His pupils shook in realization. Ellen could have pushed him away; hell, he could even kill Lu Yizhou with a crook of his finger if he wanted to. Yet he didn’t.
He was just playing coy.
"You—" Words stuck in his throat, Lu Yizhou was rendered speechless by the sheer cuteness of his lover. How could someone, whose appearance was so cold and aloof like a jade statue, be so adorable? His heart was squeezed by a vice grip and a sweet tang permeated his mouth. His heart was so soft for this man that it could directly melt into a puddle of goo. Without him realizing, a wide smile spread across his face and his gaze became so tender and affectionate that it was a bit unbearable to see.
