When it came to showing dedication, the first person Bai Jue thought of was He Min.
His gaze suddenly turned cold; he thought anyone trying to compete with him had no chance, not even a sliver of an opening.
"Bai Jue, why don't you go ask my sister? After all, she's closer to Mingyan and could take the opportunity to gauge Mingyan's feelings," Jian Luo suggested.
Bai Jue's body stiffened. Ask Jian Qing?
If Jian Qing knew about this, she'd probably revel in his misfortune.
Seeing Bai Jue's hesitation, Jian Luo smiled knowingly. "Bai Jue, if you keep hesitating, you'll end up a lifelong bachelor."
"..."
Bai Jue sighed, propping his head with one hand as he fell into deep thought.
Well, since he'd already made a mess of things, he had no choice but to see it through, even if it meant going down on his knees.
The sky was clear, the golden sunlight making the ground hot to the touch.
The wind chimes swayed, tinkling crisply.
