Chapter 445 - 289: Celebrating the New Year (1)
Xing Nanny verbally agreed, but she secretly signaled to Wan Lu to quickly invite Assistant Minister Xiao over.
Wan Lu hurriedly left.
About half a quarter of an hour later, Xiao Song hurried over. After hearing from Xing Nanny that Ran Yan had not eaten lunch or dinner, he disregarded all propriety, walked straight into the room, lifted his robe, and sat down by the bed, softly calling, "Ah Yan."
Xiao Song tugged at her quilt, but it didn’t budge. "Ah Yan, get up. I’ll take you out to have fun. If you don’t get up now, I might just have to carry away the quilt with you in it," he teased.

Without a response, Xiao Song did as he said. He wrapped her in the quilt and prepared to carry her away.
"Xiao Yuezhi, put me down!" Ran Yan already felt embarrassed, and being carried out in a quilt due to shyness would only add to her humiliation.
Xiao Song put her down, and because Ran Yan had also pulled off her socks when she got into bed, he set her foot on top of his, bringing their bodies very close together. Xiao Song’s mellow voice was right by her ear, "I have done things even more embarrassing than this before, but I never reacted like you are now."
"What have you done?" Ran Yan’s nose touched his chest, wrapped in the quilt in his embrace, feeling very safe.
