"Qing Yu——"

Tang Yu half turned sideways, and after seeing who it was, he said casually, "Actually, just a simple cleaning technique will do."

"It's okay." There was a hint of gentleness and persistence in the cold voice. An Qingyu carefully wiped the water droplets from Tang Yu's hair before slowly taking away the handkerchief.

Tang Yu: “…No, I” I can actually see a little.

Before she finished speaking, An Qingyu took out a soft hairband and wrapped it around Tang Yu's eyes. After three times, Tang Yu... could no longer see.

An Qingyu looked down at Tang Yu in the bright light, but did not seem to have any intention of waiting for Tang Yu's answer.

Because... An Qingyu has learned to be self-reliant.
