Huangfu Jingchen, whose thoughts were drifting uncontrollably far away, began to breathe a bit heavily.
His mind was entangled with Xia Wenjin's bright smile, her enchanting eyes and brows, her porcelain-like skin, her delicate cheeks that seemed to shatter with a touch, her rosy cherry lips...
A strange aura roamed within his body, flowing and surging, burning intensely wherever it passed, as if it was about to set his whole being aflame.
He felt like a traveler in the desert who hadn't drunk water for days, his heart parched and unbearable, yet burning beyond measure.
That aura continued to flow within him, and he struggled to resist it, trying to lessen the heat, but the more he suppressed it, the hotter it became.
Only when he saw that smiling face in his mind did he feel slightly cooler.
However, that slight coolness was like a drop in the bucket, far from enough to extinguish the flames that were rising all over him.
