Chapter 176: Xiangxiang
Half an hour later.
Jiang Huai looked at Luo Yueguan, who was leaning against the bed. Perhaps because she was so engrossed in the story, the bedding had unknowingly slipped off, revealing a light purple chest wrap underneath, with tightly tied shoulder straps, and her delicate and exquisite collarbones faintly visible in the dim light.
Jiang Huai gazed at Luo Yueguan’s face, “Aren’t you going to sleep?”
“If you don’t tell me a story with a happy ending today, you can’t leave!”
Luo Yueguan’s tone seemed a bit anxious. Jiang Huai had already told her two tragic love stories—one about a fox demon and a young Taoist, and the other about an unfinished love between a human and a ghost.
Unfortunately, his stories were so well-told that she couldn’t help but feel emotionally involved as if her heart was being twisted.
“I haven’t made up any stories with happy endings. I can’t think of any right now. Miss, please go to sleep. I’m dying of thirst.”
Jiang Huai had been talking non-stop for an hour, his mouth dry and tongue parched.
Luo Yueguan snorted coldly, “Shall I give you something to drink?”
Jiang Huai always felt there was something odd about her words and chose not to respond. Luo Yueguan’s nose twitched slightly, and she looked at him puzzledly.
“Where does that milk scent on you come from?”
