Shao He's smile was barely visible, and her eyes conveyed a deep sorrow.
Pei Huaian noticed her mood was off immediately and brushed the dust off himself as he walked over to her.
"Standing here watching the moon is so boring, let me take you up for a better view."
With that, Pei Huaian didn't wait for her response; he directly wrapped his arms around Shao He's slender waist, lightly pushed off with his toes, and soared into the air, disappearing from the spot in the blink of an eye.
By the time Shao He realized what had happened, the two of them were already standing atop the ridge of the roof.
Shao He's mouth dropped open in astonishment as the altitude allowed her to feel the constant breezes of fresh air.
Pei Huaian slightly furrowed his brow, keenly sensing Shao He's discomfort, "Is something troubling you?"
"No..." Shao He shook her head in denial.
Looking at her slightly panicked eyes, Pei Huaian pursed his lips and drew nearer, saying, "You're not good at lying."
