The next day.
As the sky turned white, the usual dawn sunlight did not appear; instead, pure white snowflakes began to fall from the sky.
Even though it was only the end of the Mao hour (5-7 AM), Chu Qinghe's entire courtyard was already covered with a layer of white snow.
However, in this quiet moment, a door by the courtyard slowly opened, and a figure in a snow-white dress stepped out, after which the door was gently closed again.
As the door closed, Yaoyue turned her aloof face slightly, and after glancing at the room where Dongfang Bubai was, a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Immediately afterward, before anyone else had gotten up, Yaoyue tiptoed to Chu Qinghe's door and gently pushed it open.
After stepping into the room, close the door behind you.
The entire process was carried out almost without any noise.
A short while later, amidst the gentle falling snow, Dongfang Bubai opened the door almost exactly at his usual departure time.
Looking up at the courtyard filled with white snow, Dongfang Bubai raised an eyebrow and slowly stepped into the courtyard.
As her fair hand rose, snowflakes fell onto it and quickly melted into glistening water droplets.
With a light exhale, as his lips parted slightly, a thick mist rose up, as if the breath had dispelled the frost.
"good!"
Glancing at the plants in the courtyard now covered in a layer of white snow, Dongfang Bubai smiled.
Even without makeup, her smile is especially radiant.
From a high vantage point, the fiery red Dongfang Bubai stands out dazzlingly against the backdrop of white snow.
Together with the surrounding scenery, it forms a stunningly beautiful painting.
"Squeak~"
However, just then, a slight sound of a door opening came from the side.
Upon hearing the voice, Dongfang Bubai turned his gaze slightly, his calm yet gentle eyes following the source of the sound.
However, as the gaze shifted slightly, what came into view was Yaoyue, dressed in a snow-white long dress, her face still aloof and cold.
Upon seeing Yaoyue, Dongfang Bubai let out a soft snort, then withdrew his gaze and walked to the side.
"Um?"
However, just as he took that first step, Dongfang Bubai seemed to realize something and quickly looked back.
The reason is simple: at this moment, the door behind Yaoyue is not her own room, but the main house where Chu Qinghe is.
In other words, the woman just now came out of Chu Qinghe's room.
At this early morning, Yaoyue actually came out of Chu Qinghe's room, and the implied information was self-evident.
Almost instantly, Dongfang Bubai's face darkened, and his fists clenched tightly.
On the other hand, at Chu Qinghe's door, facing Dongfang Bubai's change of expression, Yaoyue raised her lips slightly and said, "Didn't expect that, did you! I got there first."
The smugness in his voice was almost palpable.
Hearing what Yaoyue said, Dongfang Bubai almost gritted his teeth and said, "Shameless."
Faced with Dongfang Bubai's insults, Yaoyue chuckled and said, "Don't worry, since you led me to this Yushui City, from now on I will be the superior and you the inferior."
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Bubai couldn't help but let out a low growl.
"You're asking for it."
As the last word fell, Dongfang Bubai's entire body erupted with true energy, and he instantly appeared in front of Yaoyue. His hand, which was about to strike Yaoyue's face, was covered in a crimson glow from the blood-red true energy.
Despite Dongfang Bubai's resentful attack, Yaoyue remained completely unconcerned.
As the true energy circulated, a soft force came from Yaoyue's body, making Dongfang Bubai feel as if he had been hit by an inflated ball, and his body was pushed back for a moment.
Taking advantage of this opening, Yaoyue's figure flashed and she moved into mid-air.
Upon seeing this, Dongfang Bubai dodged and blocked Yaoyue's path, raising his hand to strike her again.
Throughout the process, tremors continuously emanated from the air.
The aftershocks caused the snowflakes covering the camellia trees and other plants in the yard to fall.
"You're attacking so early in the morning!"
Inside the room, listening to the constant noises outside, Qu Feiyan muttered something, then turned over and pulled her head back under the covers.
Inside the main house, Chu Qinghe sat up and looked out the window at the two women fighting fiercely in the air. Still looking sleepy, Chu Qinghe muttered, "So energetic," before pulling the covers over his head and going back to sleep.
And so, as the heavy snow fell, two figures moved and fought in the courtyard, adding a touch of hustle and bustle to what should have been a chilly morning.
Half an hour later, in the courtyard, looking at the gloomy Dongfang Bubai and the smiling Yaoyue, Chu Qinghe, having understood the situation, couldn't help but glance at Yaoyue with a slightly speechless expression.
"You're quite the player!"
Clearly, Chu Qinghe hadn't expected Yaoyue to be so cunning, deliberately opening the door to his room early in the morning so that Dongfang Bubai could see her.
As Chu Qinghe's gaze shifted, Yaoyue suddenly spoke up, "Heh! This time it was fake, but who can guarantee it won't be real next time? What do you think?"
Hearing what Yaoyue said, Dongfang Bubai narrowed his eyes and said, "If you want to continue the fight, just say so. Why waste so much time on this?"
