"No!"
"Oh my! I'm doing this for your own good! Why do you think I'm doing this, huh? Guaranteed to surprise you."
Qingxin nodded firmly at him, yet Yichen looked at her rather unhappily, "What exactly are you up to?"
——
After a while, Yichen returned to the bedroom, bringing water to Qin Mu's bedside, "The temperature is just right!"
"Mm!"
Qin Mu leaned against the headboard, sipping water while looking at him, "You seem preoccupied with something."
Yichen finally glanced at her and then casually slid his hands into the pockets of his pajama pants, "What preoccupations could I have? Oh! It's nothing but Qingxin, that girl, always causing trouble!"
Yichen said this and swept another glance at her.
While Qin Mu continued sipping her tea and watching him, Yichen turned around, casually informing her, "I'm going to freshen up!"
"Mm!"
Qin Mu responded slowly, continuing to hold the cup and sip water, lost in thought.
