Xue Lan is well aware that her seemingly calm demeanor is frightening, but in reality, she is just numb. Therefore, she will think things through in all aspects to make the best choice.
Shi Xingyi shook his head: "I'm fine."
…
Early in the morning, Shi Xingyi woke up from his dream and touched his face, which still felt hot.
Recalling the scene in his dream, even though he subconsciously felt that the other person wanted to take advantage of him, the other person's approach yesterday still left a deep impression on him.
So in my dream, I dreamt that I did something improper with him.
Shi Xingyi shook his head, trying to shake off those filthy thoughts.
After I felt a little calmer, I got myself ready.
Xue Lan, who was outside the door, seemed to have heard the commotion, so she knocked on the door with a basin of water in her hands.
Xue Lan put the basin down and when her gaze fell on Shi Xingyi, she suddenly noticed that the other's face was particularly red: "Young Master's face is so red, are you sick?"
Shi Xingyi coughed lightly: "No, maybe the blanket was too stuffy."
Xue Lan glanced out the window, where he saw fiery red maple leaves. It was already late autumn, and such a quilt shouldn't be too stuffy, but since the young master said he wasn't sick, he must be. So he nodded again: "I see."
Xue Lan sensibly withdrew again, and Shi Xingyi finished washing up before heading out to the agreed meeting place.
When he arrived, quite a few people had already arrived, including Shi Lan, but she wasn't in a good state. She looked like she hadn't slept all night, and she seemed to dislike the people around her.
Shi Xingyi could tell at a glance that the other person must have gone back and spent the whole night reading through all the information he had researched. With his righteous indignation, he must have been so angry that he couldn't sleep all night, right?
She's a bit naive and not good at hiding her emotions, so when she sees these people around her, she remembers what they did and gets furious again.
The person next to him noticed that he seemed to be in a bad mood, so he stepped forward and asked, "Young Master Shi, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing." Shi Lan didn't want to talk to them right now, so she turned her gaze to Shi Xingyi, who was not far away.
Those around him seemed completely oblivious to the fact that his impatience was directed at them. Following his gaze, they saw Shi Xingyi standing out from the crowd.
It must be said that although the young master of Linjing Pavilion is not good-looking, his temperament is truly outstanding. His ordinary appearance still stands out among a group of martial arts masters.
Yes, Shi Xingyi changed her appearance again while washing up, so she still had the same ordinary face as yesterday.
Those around Shi Lan who witnessed this scene felt that perhaps Shi Lan's impatience was due to Shi Xingyi; they genuinely disliked the person opposite him.
Thinking of this, the other party stopped talking, after all, he didn't want to offend either of the two young masters.
Although they were gradually becoming unfamiliar with Linjing Pavilion, given their strength as the second-ranked opponent yesterday, coupled with the reputation of Linjing Pavilion, they were not people like them who should provoke them.
He was just an elder of an ordinary sect, and in reality, he was nothing special.
…
Others also secretly discovered this, and they were even more convinced that the rumors about the two families' bad relationship were true.
