Baili Yu flicked the tip of her nose, then pulled her into his arms again and said with a soft sigh, âWhat should I do with you?â
Tang Doudou pouted. She should be the one saying that.
Despite that, she still stayed in his arms and greedily took in that comforting scent. She slowly closed her eyes. Staying together quietly like this was already pretty good.
On a distant roof, Jun Xin looked away with calm expression. The moist night wind was a little chilly. Baili Yu was very lucky. He didnât even have the chance to hug her.
He laughed softly. Standing up, he glanced over at the black-clothed person not far from him.
From the looks of it, there was still a person even more pitiful than him. That person didnât even dare to show his face.
âHey. Is it fun to peep on people flirting?â With a flash, he reached that personâs side.
The black-clothed personâs vigilance was very high. Before Jun Xin even finished speaking, the person had already disappeared from sight.
Jun Xin looked back and folded his arms. âLet me guess who you are. En. Thereâs a scent on you that Iâm very familiar with.â
âI wonât hurt her.â The black-clothed man simply swept a brief glance towards him before gliding away like a black owl.
Jun Xin didnât chase after him and just looked down, lost in thought. In reality, he hadnât been able to guess who that person was just based on that familiar feeling. However, after that person spoke, he became pretty certain of the personâs identity.
What confused him was, if it really was him, why would he be willing to appear at Tang Doudouâs side as a black-clothed man?
Could it be that he had some other motive?
The day was finally over. Tang Doudou and Baili Yu held hands as they walked back to Propitious Clouds Inn, bathed in the warm light of the setting sun.
However, before they even stepped inside, they heard earth-shattering wailing from inside.
There was no one aside from Nangong Yan that would cry so heartbreakingly at Propitious Clouds Inn.
Tang Doudou and Baili Yu shared a look, then walked in together.
They didnât see Nangong Yan when they walked in. The wailing sounded like it was coming from upstairs.
âShouldnât you go take a look? Sheâs your little junior sister, your masterâs precious darling ah.â Tang Doudou squeezed the large hand wrapped around hers and raised her brows.
How could Baili Yu possibly dare to say yes when he heard her taunting tone?
He curved his eyes and smiled as he replied, âKids tend to like crying and making a fuss. Sheâll be fine after crying awhile, thereâs no need to mind it.â
Pfff!
Tang Doudou couldnât help but burst out laughing. Wasnât this remark a little too mean! It was practically on par with Jun Xinâs scheme.
Had Nangong Yan heard, she probably would have been angered to the point she got internal injuries.
She wholeheartedly wanted to be Baili Yuâs sweet and charming wife, yet the person she was interested in treated her as a little kid. Just thinking about it, she seemed quite pitiful.
And of course, the person involved wasnât sensitive enough to think of this and simply pulled her along past Nangong Yanâs door as if he didnât hear a thing. He brought her to the third room on the hallway, pushed open the door, then led her in. âYou must be tired out from today. Have a good rest. My room is right next door. If thereâs anything, just knock on the wall and Iâll immediately come over.â
Tang Doudou looked around the room. For some reason it seemed familiar.
âWhy does this seem like the room from Plum Garden?â Right after she asked, she realized that he had set this room up according to the layout in that room.
But, why did he do that? She looked towards Baili Yu, a little confused.
âI heard Jun Xin mention that you tend to be sensitive about where you sleep and that you wouldnât be able to sleep well in a unfamiliar location. I was worried youâd have trouble sleeping in Cloud City so I made a room exactly like the one in Plum Garden right after I got here. I had been waiting for you to come this entire time. I just never thought that at that time, you wereâ¦â
She understood the logic now, but how did that stinkinâ little brat know that she was sensitive about where she slept? She had never told anyone about that before!
