Xie Wanqing was slightly taken aback and walked over, saying, "When did you come? Why didn't you come to see Rurou off?"
Upon hearing her words, Pei Yuqing glanced down at her but did not speak, only reaching out to hold her hand and leading her toward his villa.
Xie Wanqing felt a bit puzzled but allowed him to lead her on.
As they walked through the main gate of the Hot Spring Villa, from the front yard to the back, the distance was neither too long nor too short, yet the person beside her remained silent. Her heart was stirred, and she finally sensed something.
Tilting her head to look at him, she said, "Brother Changqing, are you angry?"
It was just after noon, and under the scorching sun, it wasn't a good time for a stroll. Hand in hand, they entered the elegant courtyard.
Pei Yuqing led her to sit down, then seated himself opposite her and began to wash his hands and brew tea.
