Chapter 130 - 130: Xie Xingyun’s Gentleness (1)
Bai Xianyu grabbed his wrist and took a look at it, “Now, not only do I have to apply the medicine on your neck, but I also have to apply the medicine on your hand.”
She paused for two seconds and said helplessly, “Can you stop drinking in the future? Or if you are drinking somewhere, get Xiao Zheng to tell me in advance. I’ll try not to go.”
Otherwise, she might be grabbed again… and had to deal with Eldest Princess Jing An.
Xie Xingyun chuckled. “Alright, i won’t drink anymore.”
As he spoke, he was about to touch the girl’s hair bun when Bai Xianyu dodged and said gloomily, “Don’t touch me. We can still be friends now.”
Xie Xingyun raised his eyebrows and asked calmly, “Is touching the head not allowed between friends?”
“No.”
“Then I seemed to have touched, hugged, and…” His gaze landed on her beautiful lips, and his tone suddenly lowered.”… kissed you.”
The corners of Bai Xianyu’s mouth twitched. “That could only mean that you’re not decent.”
Xie Xingyun leaned back in his chair slightly and did not comment.
“To go beyond the touch between friends, both sides must be willing.” Bai Xianyu was still relatively conservative deep down. She sat back down and took a bite of green cabbage before continuing, “Otherwise, do you think it’s meaningful to do what you did previously?”
Xie Xingyun bent down and supported his chin with his hand. He tilted his head and looked at her. “It seems like…”
Bai Xianyu glanced at him coldly.
The man could not help but laugh at the beauty’s look of displeasure and resentment.
Xie Xingyun looked at her. After a while, he smiled insincerely and said,”… It’s quite meaningless.”
Bai Xianyu,”…”
“Xie Xingyun, I realized that you seem to have changed.”
Bai Xianyu looked up from the side and their gazes met.
Dust floated in the direction of the light. The man holding her hand had a resolute face and his deep eyes were focused on her. His well-defined facial features revealed a hint of coldness in his bones. Perhaps the atmosphere at this moment was too relaxed, Xie Xingyun’s lacquered eyes under his thick eyebrows were a little relaxed as he lazily waited for her to finish her sentence.
“In what way?”
“It’s not like you anymore.” Bai Xianyu sized him up carefully. “You said that both of us can be reborn, so is it possible that you have changed into another person in your shell?”
Xie Xingyun chuckled and scratched her nose. “What are you thinking about?”
Bai Xianyu did not have time to retreat and touched her nose resentfully.
She was just really not used to it.
To her surprise, Bai Xianyu realized that Xie Xingyun had not asked what she wanted to eat when he ordered the dishes just now, but every dish was her favorite.
After discovering this, she also recalled the previous meal.
Previously, Xie Xingyun seemed to have called out the names of the dishes without hesitation. Just like today, they were all her favorites.
Then she could assume that Xie Xingyun still remembered her favorite dishes.
Bai Xianyu’s eyes were a little complicated. Ever since Xie Xingyun expressed his feelings to her at Buddha Temple, everything after that seemed to be all designed to prove his words.
At first, Bai Xianyu did not believe him. Perhaps after interacting with him for so many years, they had feelings for each other. That only proved that Xie Xingyun was not completely a block of wood, but most of it was probably because of his possessiveness and habits.
But later, when he was drunk, he asked her to bring him home. He stayed in the cold water for a few hours to help her fish out the jade pendant. When he heard her shouting for help at the Qionglin Banquet, he abandoned Emperor Wu Xuan to save her…
There were also many details similar to today’s dishes.
She did not know when it started, but even someone as noble and arrogant as Xie Xingyun would often appear looking lost in front of her.
So, was he telling the truth?
Bai Xianyu pondered for a while. Seeing that she was staring at him in a daze, Xie Xingyun could not help but reach out and pinch her delicate and pink face. “Do you like it then?”
Bai Xianyu did not hear him at all. She absent-mindedly picked up another braised lion head. “Huh?”
Xie Xingyun leaned back, crossed his arms, and glanced at her. “Didn’t you say that I’ve changed? Then do you like me a little more?”
Bai Xianyu heard it clearly this time and subconsciously retorted, “I can only say that you’re not as difficult to get along with as before.”
She was still far from liking him.
Xie Xingyun raised his handsome eyebrows slightly and was a little depressed. “Are you prejudiced against me? Didn’t you say that you liked gentle people previously? Why don’t you like me when I’m gentle?”
Bai Xianyu looked up at him self-righteously.. “Shouldn’t i be prejudiced against you?”
