"Jie Jingsi." Qin Mei tried to grab for it, but Jie Jingchen caught her in an embrace. Remembering last night, she didn't dare cross his lines again. The man was far too sensitive. He wouldn't beat her senseless the way he had Jie Jingjue, but for Qin Mei, his "punishment" felt no less severe.
Case in point: her entire body ached so much she felt like she couldn't even get out of bed, yet here he was, telling her to get up.
Jie Jingchen held her tense frame, a sense of helplessness washing over him as he gently patted her back. "Relax. When you're like this, I won't… I'm not that much of a beast."
'Only she knew just how much of a beast he could be.' There was no way she could relax while he held her like this. Qin Mei tried to push him away. "Jie Jingsi, have mercy."
