Chapter 2476

"No way."

"You!" Shangguan Ting said angrily: "Then stop holding my hand, let go!"

Only now did Zhao Chi realize he was still holding Shangguan Ting's hand.

He was usually used to it with Gu Qing and the others, and basically whenever he went out he would hold their hands.

He had been holding Shangguan Ting's hand the whole way, kneading and squeezing as they walked, and Shangguan Ting hadn't resisted at all, so he hadn't felt anything was off.

Zhao Chi immediately let go: "Oh, sorry about that…"

But Shangguan Ting was unwilling.

"Huh? You're really not holding it anymore? I was just joking."

Saying so, she took the initiative and put her hand back into Zhao Chi's.

But Zhao Chi refused to hold it again.

Shangguan Ting said angrily: "You were just kneading and squeezing away, and now you're putting on an act? Hold my hand!"

Zhao Chi waved his hand and said: "Captain Shangguan, this isn't appropriate, it'll easily cause the Renwu Society to misunderstand."

Shangguan Ting snorted: "Let them misunderstand then, I'm a woman and I don't even care, what are you hesitating about as a grown man? Are you afraid someone will come looking for trouble with you because of me? Don't worry, I'm not as popular as Li Ruanyu, no one cares if you hold my hand, hold it!"

Zhao Chi suddenly felt there was something off about her words.

Was there a hint of grievance in them?

To be honest, Shangguan Ting's character wasn't bad.

Impulsive was impulsive.

But she really was a kind-hearted woman.

The way she spoke was genuinely a little heartbreaking.

Shangguan Ting put her hand back into Zhao Chi's, and this time didn't give him a chance to refuse, directly interlocking their fingers and clasping them tightly together.

"Don't shake my hand off, or I'll really get angry!"

Shangguan Ting raised her head to look at Zhao Chi.

Zhao Chi really didn't let go again.

Shangguan Ting cheered up once more.

"Hey, Zhao Chi, are you too embarrassed to tell Su Qin? If you're too embarrassed, I'll tell her."

"Tell her what?"

"That I'm accompanying you shopping."

Zhao Chi refused flatly: "No, I've already promised her, I can't go back on my word."

Shangguan Ting laughed: "Really? You're that true to your word? Then how about I accompany you shopping together with her?"

Zhao Chi sighed: "Are you really not busy? The werewolves haven't been driven back yet, your time is even tighter, wait until you're done with this busy period and then come find me."

Shangguan Ting laughed: "No matter how busy I am, I still need to rest, and I really do have something good for you."

"Something good? The spoils from just now?"

Shangguan Ting snorted: "What does that count? When are you going back to your territory? It's not convenient here, I'll go to your territory to give it to you."

"Still being all mysterious about it?"

"It's not mysterious, it's important, what I'm giving you is my most precious treasure."

"Precious treasure? It wouldn't be your virginity or something, would it? Don't pull that kind of stunt."

"You…"

Shangguan Ting was stunned for a moment, then said: "I'd be willing to give it, would you want it?"

Zhao Chi didn't know how to answer.

He wanted to just say no.

But saying that would be a little hurtful, so he could only stay silent.

Shangguan Ting suddenly laughed again: "Yo yo yo, still hesitating? That just goes to show you want it, but you're afraid Li Ruanyu will get angry, right? I can secretly give it to you, without her knowing."

"No no, that's not needed!"

"Oh~ you still want to do it openly, right? That's what I think too! Then when the time is ripe, I'll give it to you openly!"

"That's not what I meant either…"

"Hmph hmph, I don't care what you mean, this body of mine was saved by you, it definitely belongs to you!"

"Mutual rescue between comrades-in-arms is perfectly normal, Captain Shangguan, you shouldn't take it too much to heart."

"Bullshit! The situation was so critical back then, the werewolf threat hadn't been resolved at all, but you burned through a life-saving skill to save me, comrades-in-arms don't do that."

Zhao Chi had no way to explain it to her in detail.

For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
