After Xu An walked away, Jing Mo turned to Xia Xin with a serious expression and said, "Keep your distance from Xu An; she's not to be trusted."
Xia Xin's tone was tinged with jealousy, "She doesn't seem interested in getting close to me. It looks like she's more interested in getting closer to you."
Caught off guard by her own words, Xia Xin paused. She thought, 'Am I jealous? No, it must just be discomfort at seeing someone getting too close to my big brother.'
Lost in his thoughts, Jing Mo didn't notice the jealousy in Xia Xin's tone. His gaze followed Xu An as she retreated.
On her way to find Zhao Nan, Xia Xin was intercepted by Xu Ping, "Miss Xia, could you lend me a hand? This equipment is heavy, and I need to transport them to a temporary tent. It's not far."
Always willing to help, Xia Xin agreed readily.
The equipment was indeed heavy. As Xia Xin picked them up, she focused intently on her path, vigilant not to trip over any stones.
