Xie Jingrun took the corn from her hand, a slight, enigmatic smile playing on his lips. "What do you think I want to do?"
Rong Qingqing choked for a moment. Seeing him washing the corn so earnestly, she felt a little suspicious. Was he just here to help her wash the corn?
She breathed a sigh of relief, stepped back a little, and put some distance between them.
Xie Jingrun narrowed his eyes upon seeing this and moved closer to her.
Rong Qingqing: "..."
She suddenly took a sweet potato out of the sack and threw it forcefully into the water.
"Smack!"
Water splashed everywhere.
Caught off guard, Xie Jingrun was immediately splashed with water all over his face.
"Rong Qingqing!" Realizing what had happened, he gritted his teeth.
Rong Qingqing immediately took a step back, feeling a little guilty. "I didn't mean to. Look, I got water all over my face too."
Xie Jingrun raised his arm to wipe the water off his face, glanced at her, and saw that her face was also covered with water droplets.
I was stunned for a moment.
Her fair and delicate face was covered with water droplets, but she was not at all disheveled. Instead, she had the air of a lotus flower after the rain, pure and elegant.
Coming to his senses, he sneered, "Killing a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of your own, what's the point?"
Rong Qingqing saw that he had seen through her, but she didn't take it to heart.
Even if she suffered heavy losses, so what? She had at least gotten her little revenge on him.
Just as she was about to raise her sleeve to wipe the water droplets from her face, Xie Jingrun suddenly reached out. She was startled and instinctively tilted her head back to avoid his movement.
Xie Jingrun narrowed his eyes and suddenly used his sleeve to forcefully wipe the water droplets from her face.
Rong Qingqing: "..."
Xie Jingrun curled his lips, lowered his head to wash the corn, and said in a deep voice, "I'll let it go this time, but if there's a next time, I'll just throw you into the water."
Changlin dutifully covered for the two. Although his master didn't care much about his reputation, as a subordinate, he still felt it was necessary to cover for him.
He kept his eyes down, seemingly oblivious to the interaction between his master and the old lady.
Shangguan Yanran suppressed her curiosity and refrained from glancing in their direction, but her heart was in turmoil.
She said there was definitely something impure between the two of them, and she was right.
It's unbelievable that a cold-blooded monster like Xie Jingrun could have moments when he couldn't control himself.
Keep in mind, there are people all around, yet these two are secretly carrying out their plan right under everyone's noses. Wow, that's really explosive!
"Brother Jingrun!"
Just then, Feng Xin jogged over.
Xie Jingrun frowned slightly, dropped the corn, and got up to leave.
Rong Qingqing, whose face was splashed with water: "..."
That jerk, how can he be so vengeful?
When Feng Xin saw that Xie Jingrun left as soon as she arrived, she couldn't help but feel a little listless.
She sat down listlessly on the rock. "Qingqing, do you think Brother Jingrun really dislikes me?"
Rong Qingqing was already furious. Upon hearing this, she immediately retorted, "Xie Jingrun is the one who's annoying. Why should he hate you? You should hate him."
Feng Xin thought she was just comforting her, which made her feel a little better. But after she calmed down, she couldn't help but defend Xie Jingrun and said unhappily, "Rong Qingqing, how could you say that about my brother Jingrun?"
"I'm telling the truth." Rong Qingqing wiped the water droplets from her face and said resentfully, "What do you like about him? Besides his good looks, he has no redeeming qualities. He has a bad temper, is unpredictable, and is cruel. He's just a tyrant..."
The sound stopped abruptly.
She looked up at the man who had returned not far away, and her mouth dropped open in astonishment.
