Lu Xize's forehead was still pressed against Chu Yao's. His Adam's apple bobbed as he murmured, "Very sweet."
Chu Yao was already flushed from his kiss. Now, hearing these two words, her cheeks instantly burned even hotter.
'This man is unbelievable. How can he say something like that without the slightest bit of shame?'
Blushing, Chu Yao pushed against Lu Xize's chest. "Let's go eat. I'm hungry." Lu Xize chuckled softly, pulled back, and started the car.
Chu Yao's cheeks were still red all the way to the restaurant. She had taken off her sunglasses and mask after getting in the car, but now she put them back on to follow Lu Xize inside.
Lu Xize had brought her to one of the most exclusive French restaurants in the Imperial City. Just after they ordered, Chu Yao got up to go to the restroom. 'I put on some light-colored lipstick when I left the house,' she thought, 'and he probably just kissed it all off.'
