Gu Xiaoxi, upon hearing that, instantly flared up. She threw off the quilt, sat up, and glared at him resentfully. "You know very well that I don’t agree, yet you still do it. Are you deliberately trying to antagonize me?"
Bai Yaxuan looked at her puffed-up cheeks, her long eyelashes fluttering as she had just woken up, her eyes clear like spring water. Her rosy lips were tightly pressed together in anger, taking on an even deeper hue.
