Lu Qiao was covering her mouth and yawning when she suddenly heard these words. Her expression froze, and she slowly turned her head to look at her.
Si Yi came over last night, how did she manage to see him again?
She bit her lip and vehemently denied it, "You're mistaken..."
Bai Li said, "Did he come back again, and then you..." She stopped there, but her eyes sparkled with curiosity.
Green Beauty: "..."
Realizing what she meant, she felt both embarrassed and anxious. "Nothing's wrong with us, don't make wild guesses."
"Oh, no? Then why do you look like you didn't sleep well? I thought you two stayed up all night," Bai Li said somewhat sullenly.
Green Beauty: "..."
Why did she detect a hint of disappointment in her words?
What's disappointing?
Also, what the heck is staying up all night?
"It's not what you think. I didn't sleep well because I was doing needlework," Green Fairy couldn't help but explain.
"What needlework is so important that it requires staying up all night to do?" Bai Li asked in surprise, clearly not believing her explanation.
Green Fairy felt a headache coming on, so she took out the sachet from her bosom. "Last night, Si Yi came to see me because he disliked the pattern on the sachet. He asked me to take it apart and embroider a new pattern."
Bai Li took the sachet and glanced at it, then clicked her tongue in amazement. "You have such a good temper! Even after being rejected, you obediently re-embroidered it for him."
Green Qiao choked for a moment, and instantly felt her heart pounding.
Yeah, why would she obediently re-embroider for Si Yi even though he disliked her?
Bai Li handed the sachet back to her, saying, "However, you have good skills, so even if you have to embroider it again, it won't be a difficult task."
Instead of being comforted, Lü Qiao became even more depressed.
She tucked the sachet into her sleeve, determined not to give it to Si Yi again.
However, when she finally closed the door that evening, it started rattling again.
Her lips twitched slightly, but she decided to ignore it.
But the knocking persisted, continuing again and again.
She scratched her hair, then went over and flung the door open.
Outside the door, Si Yi stood there, and seeing that the door had finally opened, he looked up at her and said in a cool voice, "Finally decided to open the door?"
Green Fairy paused for a moment, then said irritably, "Why are you here again?"
"Where's my sachet?" Si Yichao reached out his hand to her.
Greenie's eyes flickered, and she said nonchalantly, "I gave it to someone else."
"Who did you give it to?" Si Yi's eyes narrowed dangerously.
"It's none of your business. You may not like it, but there are others who will appreciate it," Green Fairy said deliberately.
Si Yi's temple throbbed, and he leaned closer, saying dangerously, "Lü Qiao, you gave the sachet you gave me to another man?"
Meeting the boy's threatening gaze, Lü Qiao suddenly felt immense pressure and, as if possessed, took out a sachet from her sleeve and handed it to him.
Si Yi's lips curved slightly as she reached out and took the sachet. She then examined the pattern on the sachet, rubbed it between her fingers, and said with satisfaction, "This pattern is still wearable." With that, she handed it back to her.
Hearing this, Lü Qiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief. But when he handed it back, she was taken aback. "What's wrong? Don't you like it?"
"Tie it on for me," Si Yi said, looking at her.
Lu Qiao paused, her heart pounding a few times, before finally reaching out to take it. Then, she silently stepped forward and bent down to tie it around his waist.
Si Yi looked down at the girl in front of him, a smile curving his lips and a look of pleasure in his eyes.
After she finished tying it and straightened up, his expression returned to normal.
"It's getting late, I'll head back now," he said calmly.
"Oh." Green Fairy nodded.
Si Yi took two steps, then suddenly turned around, stuck something into her hair, and walked away quickly before she could react.
Green Beauty was stunned.
Coming to my senses, I reached out and touched the thing in my hair, then took it off.
It is a beaded flower.
It's very beautiful and exquisite.
She was somewhat surprised that Si Yi would think of giving her something like this.
However, she was still very happy.
She looked at it carefully, and finally, she put it in her hair while looking in the mirror.
The gloom that had been weighing on my mind suddenly vanished.
Never mind, she forgave Si Yi; that guy probably didn't mean it.
She sighed, touched the pearl hairpin in her hair, and liked it very much.
That guy has a good eye.
When Si Yi returned to his courtyard, Wang Houde was still there.
"So, does Lüqiao like the beaded flower you gave her?" Wang Houde asked with a smile as he sat at the table, drinking his wine.
"How would I know if she likes it or not?" Si Yi said, sitting down opposite him. Her fingers under the table were constantly on the sachet, stroking it intermittently.
Wang Houde was speechless for a moment after hearing his words.
"What do you mean you don't know? Usually, when a girl receives a gift from her beloved, isn't she happy and shy?"
Si paused for a moment, recalling the scene just now, and said with some bitterness, "I casually put the beaded flower on her head and left. I didn't pay attention to whether she was happy or not."
Wang Houde was about to give up. "Why are you running so fast? What if she doesn't like it and just throws it away?"
Si frowned and said uncertainly, "It can't be that bad, can it? Didn't you just say that girls are always happy to receive gifts from their loved ones?"
“That’s the norm, but you and Lü Qiao don’t fall into that category,” Wang Houde bluntly poured cold water on the idea.
Si Yi suddenly stood up and was about to walk out.
Seeing this, Wang Houde quickly pulled him back, asking, "What are you going to do now?"
"I'll go see if Lü Qiao has thrown away the beaded hairpin I gave her," Si Yi said gloomily.
