Lin Feng smiled and put away his sword, it was enough for today. He looked at her and, without saying anything, sat beside her, closer than he had ever been.
Cui Shuyin felt his presence and, just as she was about to remind him that she wasn't in the mood to entertain his willful behavior, she felt his hand on her calf.
