Are you angry?

  Pushing open the door, the room was pitch black, with the window open. The bright moonlight spilled onto the head of the bed, and the person on the bed seemed to have been startled, slightly sitting up and looking at the doorway. A head of raven-black hair cascaded down onto the pillow, and a face that seemed to be from another world, ethereal and dreamlike in the moon's rays, with thin lips moving: "You..."

  So you're still coming?

  "Didn't you tell me to leave a door open for you?" Su Jinping was visibly furious.

  The person on the bed paused for a moment after hearing her words and didn't make a sound.

  Storming back to the main house, wanting to bring in the candles, but only found the remnants of the candle, her pale white hands touched the charred wax mark, furrowing her brow and turning around, opening her mouth with some surprise: "Have you been waiting for me?"

  "Miss, please go back." Ignoring her question, he calmly gave the order to leave, also deliberately ignoring the unusual feeling in his heart.

  The woman's face immediately turned as dark as a stone in a latrine. How could she ask such a question? She must be out of her mind to think he would wait for her! Grinding her teeth quietly, she ignored his words and asked instead: "Are there any candles left?"

  "You..." A look of obvious confusion appeared on his indifferent face, really hadn't seen a woman like this before, told her to go back, but she acted as if she hadn't heard.

  She leaned against the door frame, a sly smile spreading across her delicate face: "Isn't it hard to say where the candle is? Is it because it's not conveniently placed? Or is it on the bed? Hmm?"

  Raising an eyebrow, she looked him up and down as if trying to see through his clothes.

  The person on the bed seemed annoyed, and an abnormal color appeared on his white jade-like face: "In the drawer by the bedside!"

  ……

  The dim yellow candlelight flickered to life, and with a slanted glance at the wound on his face, a sudden surge of unprovoked anger flared up. This guy had ignored her words again, letting him apply the medicine himself, but he hadn't even done that, damn it!

  Skilled hands quickly found last night's medicine and were preparing to apply it to his face just like yesterday.

  "Be careful!" he said coldly, at the same time slightly turning his head to avoid her hand.

  Su Jinping was stunned for a moment, carefully examining his face for a while. After an eerie silence, she suddenly leaned her head forward and asked, "Are you angry?"

  Angry? This question also stunned him, angry? He would have such emotions too? But the depression in his heart was also reminding him of a fact, he seemed to be really angry!

  "No." A very firm opening.

  As soon as this "nothing" came out, Su Jinping's face suddenly lit up with a radiant glow: "You said you didn't have any, look at your mouth, it's already reached the sky!"

  Has your mouth gone up to the sky? Stupidly stretched out a hand to touch his lips, and then... A rare look of annoyance appeared on his usually calm face...

  "Haha... This guy is so funny, he actually believed it! "Alright, stop being arrogant, how old are you, still acting like a kid!"

  As she spoke, she applied the medicine to his face: "Why don't you apply it yourself?" Was he waiting for her to do it? Cough... would thinking that way be a bit too self-absorbed?

  After asking, it was also very natural that there was no response.

  "Does it still hurt?" asked with a bit of patience, already showing some signs of gritting his teeth.

  Still no response.

  Unable to bear it any longer, she let out a loud shout: "Are you deaf or mute?" repeatedly testing her patience!

  "In that case, this is the kind of person I am. If you don't like it, girl, you can leave!" As soon as he uttered such an arrogant sentence, he himself was stunned! Had he also learned to throw a childish tantrum?

  So Su Jinping was certain that this guy was really angry! "Hey, you've been waiting for me, right?" If he's angry, it seems like there's only one explanation.

  As soon as the words came out, there was another silence. The movements of his hands softened a bit: "Last night, I accidentally offended that shameless Emperor, so he sent me to perform in a play! After finishing the performance, that guy Huang Fu Ye took advantage of his status to bully people and made me accompany him to watch the moon, so I came a little late."

  The wound on his face had faded a bit, the bruise had turned into a faint blue color, but the flame in her heart was still burning. She had been too lenient with that guard last night! Should have directly crippled his hand, and that princess who owed her a beating!

  "Oh." For some reason, when she mentioned accompanying Huang Fu to watch the moon at night, that uncomfortable feeling in her heart became even more pronounced.

  "It's not a big deal, is it? Just running a bit late, not like I didn't show up. What's there to be angry about? Wait, angry? You're not... you can't have fallen for me, have you?" Su Jinping asked incredulously, did she still have such charm?!

  The corners of his mouth twitched slightly: "No. Next time you drink, don't come back."

  "Haha, so you're saying I'm interested in you now? You're starting to care about me, aren't you? Are you worried that I'll drink too much and get into trouble on the road? Don't worry, don't worry, I..."

  "It's too smoky." The brief two words interrupted someone's lengthy argument.

  That girl's smug face suddenly froze! She gritted her teeth fiercely, again! And she had been overthinking things! It wasn't just that he didn't have a crush on her, but he actually looked down on her! Although to him, she was just a friend, she wouldn't mind having such a handsome guy secretly in love with her - what a face-saving thing that would be. But...

  Su Jinping scowled, wiping the medicine on him while muttering: "I really don't understand how there can be people like you in this world! Luckily I have a good temper to tolerate you. Looking at you, it's no wonder you can't get married off. Otherwise, if I also can't find a husband in the future, we might as well just make do with each other."

  The more he spoke, the more outrageous it became. Baili Hong's expressionless face grew even more expressionless, to the point where there was no expression that could be used to describe it.

  "Hey, are you still mad?" She asked out of the blue, and for some reason, after asking this question, she had a feeling that she was coaxing a child.

  It's only natural, but there was no response.

  "If you're still angry, then how about this? I'll take a loss and apologize to you. How's that?" The woman suggested with an unwilling expression.

  The corners of her eyes twitched slightly, and a hint of strangeness appeared on her absolutely beautiful face. Was she at a disadvantage? Had she been rude to him just now?

  "Speak, I hope I didn't offend you somewhere? I'm willing to sacrifice my life for righteousness, and with great difficulty, satisfy you once!" As he said it was with great difficulty, but there wasn't a hint of difficulty on that face.

  Digression

  If you don't collect them yet, then I'll take advantage of it and give you a little surprise. Hehe...
