Luo Yingbai finally looked at her, didn’t answer, picked up the beer beside him, took a sip, and wiped his lips with a tissue, wearing a half-smile.
Seeing Luo Yingbai’s leisurely movements, Sun Yue felt a sense of anxiety and guilt, wanting to punch him and make him speak quickly.
Luo Yingbai threw the crumpled tissue into the trash and then asked, “Why aren’t you eating chili?”
His voice was gentle, as if caring for a loved one. Sun Yue hesitated, “Didn’t I just say I’m feeling heated and don’t want to eat it?”
Luo Yingbai tapped his forehead, “Oh, when someone is heated, their yin and yang are imbalanced, they should look flushed and have strong yang energy. But I see your face is pale, with dispersing yin energy around your brow. You don’t look heated, but more like you’ve been backlashed after casting a spell, with insufficient qi and blood.”
Sun Yue’s expression froze. After a moment, she slowly said, “You… actually know?”
“I wasn’t sure before,” Luo Yingbai smiled innocently. “But now I know. Thanks for telling me.”
Sun Yue: “…
Although I can see that you are exuding a gloomy aura, pale-faced, and with damage to your fortune palace, I cannot definitively confirm that this was caused by the incident. However, since you were just trying to probe me and ask about the specifics of how I saved Yue Bo, I’ll take this opportunity to probe you back.”
Luo Yingbai propped his chin on one hand, sizing her up, and said leisurely: “Why are you being so self-destructive? Tell me about it.”
Chapter 8: Sun Yue’s Purpose
Sun Yue thought she knew something about Luo Yingbai, believing he was usually lazy and mild-mannered, seeming not to care about anything, appearing neither robust nor clever, with nothing remarkable except a good-looking face, making it hard to imagine he was the one who saved Tang Yue Bo and exposed her.
Due to the rapid turn of events, the development of the entire incident was far beyond her expectations. Sun Yue quickly calculated in her mind what she should do, and for a moment, she was at a loss for words.
