Having no other way, Xuanyuan Ye sighed as he surrendered first, with his neck and shoulders being unusually red.
"You promise you won't do anything to Dr. Lu?" Ruan Ji inquired with a strange look in her eyes.
'Why is his neck so red? Did he catch a fever or something? Even his breath was starting to get so heavy... no way, did I choke him too much?'
"If you wish, then yes." Xuanyuan Ye nodded his head to her every word as he shut his eyes tightly.
Only after confirming did Ruan Ji let go of him, asking with a soft voice, "Did I hold you too tightly just now? I'm sorry I was being impulsive, but Dr. Lu is important for my recovery. I thought you'd do something bad in a moment of anger." Ruan Ji held his hand as she made him sit down by her side, stroking his face with a concerned look, "Why do you look so out of breath?"
'I didn't hold him tight enough to be so breathless, could it be that he has some respiratory problem?'
