Chapter 52 - You are forbidden from looking at me!
The two people’s hands tightly held each other’s in the dark, small space of the elevator as they stood face to face. The distance between them seemed to be a little too close.
Soft breath fanned and tickled Pei Ge’s ears, making her feel slightly awkward and have an inexplicable emotion.
