A faint blush suddenly spread across the girl's cheeks, like a sunset washing over a snow-white canvas.
Li Zhi instinctively lowered her gaze, her long, thick eyelashes trembling. She didn't dare to meet Shen Yuan's eyes.
Her delicate toes curled inside her slippers, unconsciously gripping the soles.
She took a quiet, deep breath, forcing herself to relax her curled toes.
'It's just a massage. What's there to be scared of? Besides, this isn't the first time!'
Li Zhi took another deep breath, then summoned her courage and raised her head to meet Shen Yuan's gaze.
In truth, it wasn't just Li Zhi. Shen Yuan was just as nervous.
After all... no matter how you looked at it, his request was, in fact, a little perverted.
'What kind of normal person thinks about foot massages all day long?'
So when Li Zhi looked at him, Shen Yuan met her gaze with a complete lack of confidence.
When she saw his own flickering, uncertain gaze, the tension in Li Zhi's heart instantly dissipated.
