Auntie Bai's footsteps were getting closer, and she was muttering to herself, "Eh? Where did Miss Xi go? Did she leave?"
Upon hearing Auntie Bai's voice at the door, Ye Xi, in a fit of anger, pushed Lu Lingxiao away.
Lu Lingxiao only stepped back half a step, standing firmly in place.
In contrast to Ye Xi's chaos, Lu Lingxiao appeared exceptionally calm.
Ye Xi turned around to walk out, and just as she reached the door, she bumped into Auntie Bai.
Auntie Bai was startled by Ye Xi coming out from inside, and when her gaze fell on Ye Xi's eerily red face, she noticed her lips were slightly swollen and her lipstick smeared.
Auntie Bai, puzzled, asked, "Miss Xi, what happened to your face? Why is it so red? Did you have an allergic reaction?"
There was no moment more embarrassing than this, and Ye Xi did not know how to respond.
That was until Auntie Bai saw Lu Lingxiao who was walking out from behind her.
