Pei Qin had completely forgotten about last night's incident and asked her in response, "All you did was sleep on the roof?" You didn't do anything else, did you?
Seeing that she truly didn't remember, the light in Lu Hai's eyes flickered slightly as he adamantly said, "No."
Pei Qin felt a momentary suspicion, but she still quite trusted what Lu Hai said. So she drank the hangover soup and began preparing for the New Year's celebration.
Her and her brother were still observing the mourning period, so they didn't have to get up early to join the festive rush. They lingered over making dumplings and only when the day got a bit brighter, did they gather their things and went to Lady Fang's grave to offer incense, burn paper, and pay their New Year respects.
