"I don't like people who act mysterious, nor do I like talking to strangers, so I'll take my leave now." Ye Shikai took a step aside, intending to walk past the woman.
Suddenly, Ye Shikai felt his hand being grasped. He instinctively tried to shake it off, but a strange feeling surged in his mind. The touch of this hand, so familiar, why did he suddenly not want to let go? He really wanted to keep holding her hand, never letting go…
Who is she really? Those eyes beneath the veil made Ye Shikai immerse in them, unable to extricate himself. He really wanted to lift that veil and see her face.
Unconsciously, half a minute had passed, and Ye Shikai slightly tightened his grip, ending up holding the woman's hand instead.
Ye Shikai stood there dumbfounded, his eyes glazed, remaining silent for a long time, while the woman showed no intention of pulling her hand back. In fact, beneath that veil, was a smile from the depth of her heart, though invisible to Ye Shikai.
