"Didn't we agree on today?"
Outside the door, Tang Xiao asked in some bewilderment.
Inside, Tang Yuehua was rather flustered, because that scoundrel Lu Qian kept making mischief all over her body.
Tang Yuehua had to fend off Lu Qian's wandering hands while thinking of an excuse to send Tang Xiao away.

After Tang Xiao left, Tang Yuehua lowered the delicate hand covering her mouth
