Chapter 193 - 185 Premeditated Plan
Until Shitou had recovered completely and they were walking back side by side at a leisurely pace, Lu Yun still couldn’t help but sneak glances at him from time to time, the corners of her mouth curving upward uncontrollably.
She didn’t know what was going on with herself? She just couldn’t help wanting to laugh, as if her heart was so filled with unexplained happiness that it was spilling out...
