Avina pointed at Jiang Ruling's fading back. She blankly stared and asked, "Is it alright for her to run off like that?"
Bai Zhenli frowned. Even he didn't expect her to react like that. "If you want, I can punish her later."
Avina numbly shook her head. "No, no, it's fine. She's already terrified enough as is. Isn't that punishment itself?"
Xin Wenrou didn't contain herself and spat out a chuckle. She lowered her head to the other side, hiding her laughter but unable to hide her shaking shoulders.
Bai Zhenli sighed helplessly. "Is it that funny?"
Xin Wenrou lifted her head and smiled brightly. "You didn't think it was?"
Avina was more than just pleasantly surprised by their interaction. It was closer than just acquaintances, and blame her faulty senses if false, but she sensed a hint of affection between them. Avina was intrigued.
'Perhaps Xin Wenrou is the female lead?' Avina led herself onto a presumptuous theory.
