Xue Rui patted the snow off his butt and stood up.
But Gu Muxue, a wide grin on her face, grabbed Xue Rui's hand. She deliberately let her hips sink, using his body to pull herself up.
Xue Rui leaned his face in. Gu Muxue subconsciously took a step back, thinking he was about to push his luck.
However, Xue Rui pressed his face close to her ear. "Let me pat the snow off for you."
Gu Muxue jumped in alarm and quickly started patting herself down with her small hands. If she didn't, Xue Rui was going to start patting her butt.
"Jerk!" Gu Muxue cursed through gritted teeth.
"What? Can't hear you." Xue Rui could tell from her lips that she was cursing him, but he deliberately leaned his ear closer.
Gu Muxue stood on her tiptoes and brought her face to Xue Rui's ear. "I said, jerk!"
Gu Muxue's voice was so loud, more deafening than the fireworks outside, that Xue Rui felt his eardrum tingle.
'Since she's messing with me like this, she can't blame me for taking advantage a little.'
