"Not allowed?"
"Why can't I, when you were just with Liu Die..."
Bai Kemeng's eyes brimmed with tears as she spoke, her face betraying an imminent urge to cry from a feeling of being wronged.
Su Wen's heart sank, knowing trouble was inevitable, for Bai Kemeng had indeed witnessed what happened in the pharmacy.
Before Su Wen could explain, Bai Kemeng had already drawn close, her eyes shimmering with tears as she questioned him, "Su Wen, do you think I'm not as pretty as Liu Die?"
"Of course not, Kemeng has been the flower of our village from a young age, the prettiest girl in the whole village is you."
Su Wen responded immediately, trying to soothe her before anything else.
"Flattery..." Bai Kemeng, upon hearing this, couldn't help but break into a smile, her small face slightly blushed.
However, she then asked another question, "Is it because you think I'm not as mature as Liu Die? I..."
Bai Kemeng glanced down at herself, hesitated, and then turned a bright red.
