  She had to hold it in!

  She had to maintain the dignity of a goddess and see who would give in first!

  As Nian Xiaomu silently cheered herself on in her heart, she turned to look out the window and noticed that they were not taking the route home to the Yu Family villa.

  “Where are you taking me?” Nian Xiaomu turned around to ask Yu Yuehan.

  Yu Yuehan was still talking on the phone, but when he heard her voice, he moved the phone away and answered her by saying, “Since you’re so disobedient, I’m selling you off.”


  Nian Xiaomu: “…”


  Shortly after, Yu Yuehan hung up the phone.

  “Not angry with me anymore?” Yu Yuehan stretched his arms out toward Nian Xiaomu.

  Sensing that Yu Yuehan was trying to cheer her up, she flirted back in response and replied, “I will tell you if you don’t sell me off.”


  Hearing this, Yu Yuehan pulled her into his arms.

  Hugging her tightly, he lowered his head to kiss her on the face and murmured, “Mmm, not selling you. I couldn’t bear to sell you off.”


  “…” After that, she wasn’t angry with him anymore.

  Nian Xiaomu snuggled comfortably in his arms as he held her close.

  After asking him a few times about where they were heading, she decided not to ask anymore when he continued to refuse to answer her.

  As soon as she shut her eyes, she fell asleep right away.

  When the car stopped, she opened her eyes, only half-awake.

  Just when she was about to sit up, Yu Yuehan draped his long trench coat over her and covered her from head to toe…


  She couldn’t even see what was in front of her.

  It was pitch black in front of her, so Nian Xiaomu held onto Yu Yuehan nervously and anxiously tried to yank off his coat.

  She moved a little, but Yu Yuehan pressed down on her hand and said, “Don’t move. There’s a surprise for you.”


  “…”


  She didn’t know why the word “surprise” simultaneously made her excited and afraid.

  The memory of her nose bleeding just from the sight of him flashed past her mind.

  Surely such an embarrassing incident wouldn’t happen again, right…?

  Nian Xiaomu was so worried that she started pulling on Yu Yuehan’s arm.

  When one couldn’t see, the other senses would become more perceptive.

  Yu Yuehan could feel her insecurity, so he slowed down as he led her to walk forward.

  Although Nian Xiaomu could not see anything, she could guess by listening to the surroundings that they had stepped into a restaurant. She could also hear the sound of wind blowing past, so it felt like an open air restaurant.

  It was quite quiet. Only the sound of some footsteps could be heard, and Nian Xiaomu could not tell how many people there were.

  Just when Nian Xiaomu was so nervous that she felt like she was about to explode, they finally stopped walking.

  The lights were suddenly dimmed.

  Before Nian Xiaomu could say anything, the trench coat was lifted off her!

  At first, she could not see clearly because her eyes had adjusted to the darkness and found the new environment too bright…


  When she adjusted to the light, she saw the evening scenery in front of her. Taking a few steps forward, she placed her hands on the railing and exclaimed, “It’s so beautiful here!”


  They were at a restaurant situated on a hillside and carpeted from the entrance to the dining area.

  Besides a simple lamp, there was little lighting.

  If one lifted her head up at the sky and toward the moon, it felt like the moon was within reach…


  Nian Xiaomu knew about this restaurant.

  It was a private garden with a restaurant specially built inside it. Usually, it wasn’t open to the public.

  Only on special days would the restaurant be open for business for a short time.

  Many people had tried to make reservations, but it was almost impossible to get one.

  It wasn’t the usual time for the restaurant to be open for business. How did Yu Yuehan manage to snag a reservation?

  The assistant stood by the side and explained cheerfully, “Master Han said that Miss Nian would surely like this place, so he purchased it at a high price. This is the first surprise for you today.”
