"Are you upset?" Shi Yin turned his head slightly, looking at the woman leaning on his shoulder with confusion in his eyes.
From the moment they left the bar street to their return home, she hadn't spoken much. Her taciturn demeanor was entirely unlike her usual self.
Ruan Yuan responded faintly, lying across the man's knees as she stared straight into his eyes. "I hit Jian Xitong."
Her tone was so offhanded, as though she were saying, 'I had something to eat today.'
Shi Yin paused for a moment, gently running his hand through her hair. "Then why are you upset?"
His train of thought left Ruan Yuan slightly startled. "Aren't you going to ask me why?"
She blinked twice, the light above reflecting in her slightly turned eyes as if scattering a thousand tiny ripples.
Shi Yin played along. "Tell me then."
"She tried to humiliate me with money and told me to break up with you." At the mention of this, she couldn't help recalling Jian Xitong's expression at the time.
