No wonder Xixi looked at him with such a complicated expression tonight, a mixture of surprise and pity. So that's why.
If this matter isn't clarified, I'll lose my wife.
Fu Jingyao suddenly stood up. "Xixi, who told you I'm not good enough?!"
Lin Xi quietly opened one eye. "Answer my question first, and don't lie."
Fu Jingyao smiled helplessly, "Xixi, what do you want to do tonight..."
Lin Xi retorted loudly, "I'm determining the cause of the illness, don't overthink it!!"
"Xixi, I didn't say or do anything, so who's overthinking this?"
The man suddenly leaned down, and a large shadow completely enveloped her, with a thick purple aura rushing towards her.
The two were extremely close, their breathing clearly audible. Lin Xi felt hot all over and pressed her fist against his chest. "You, speak properly."
Fu Jingyao grabbed her hand, his eyes darkening slightly. "Words are no proof; facts will do. Xixi, do you want to try?"
The indoor temperature rose rapidly, and the air became sticky and stuffy. Lin Xi felt a little breathless. She looked at the face so close to hers, her mouth moving faster than her brain.

Lin Xi panicked, not expecting his reaction to be so strong. Being misunderstood in this kind of situation is indeed hurtful to one's self-esteem.
She patted Fu Jingyao on the back and gently coaxed him, "It's my fault, don't be sad."
"Xixi, I want to make it up to you, is that okay?"
The topic suddenly shifted to this point, and Lin Xi looked into those dark eyes filled with grievance, her heart softening.
She nodded in agreement, "Okay, I'll do anything to make it up to you, just don't be sad."
Fu Jingyao's lips curled slightly, a sly glint in his eyes, "Kiss, ten times."
