Ou Jue firmly grabbed Xia Xiyan's arm, stabilizing her previously wobbly body.
The coat Xiyan had been clutching tightly in her hands fell to the ground. The well-protected Meow Meow tumbled out, shook its little body, and let out a soft "meow."
But Xiyan herself was only wearing a thin plaid shirt, entirely soaked through.
After being in the rain for so long, she had developed a fever. The burning heat of her body radiated through the touch of Ou Jue's hand.
The grip on her arm unconsciously tightened slightly. Ou Jue lowered his gaze and growled through gritted teeth, "Xia Xiyan, one day your stupidity is going to get you killed!"
Huh... why was she hearing that venomous Demon's voice?
Xiyan's consciousness was hazy. She struggled to open one eye and, upon seeing that stunningly handsome face before her, she grinned foolishly. "Ou Jue... am I dreaming?"
He really showed up.
"Do you honestly think I'd enjoy being part of some idiot's dream?!"
