Su Qiao: "..."
She had not eaten a single bite during the midday banquet. Later, she entered the woods on an empty stomach, found a cave, and treated her leg wound. By then, she was so hungry she was almost vomiting bile.
After going through all that trouble, she had finally managed to kill a tiger. She could have taken some of the freshest meat to roast, but then you suddenly appeared out of nowhere like Cheng Yaojin.
"Are you afraid of me?"
Seeing her lower her head and remain silent for so long, Xi Hanzhou was deeply displeased. He almost failed to suppress the irritability surging inside him.
"You've been deceiving me all along."
"At the banquet, you secretly glanced at me several times. Don't think I didn't see you."
Everyone had been kneeling there, too afraid to move, and even their breathing was restrained. Only she had poked out her little head, looking around in confusion, and secretly raised her head to peek at him.
Later, he had found it interesting and tested her a little. In the end, she had withdrawn again like a little tortoise, making him wonder if he had seen wrong.
"When did I ever?"
Su Qiao truly felt a little aggrieved.
Wasn't this man throwing a tantrum at the time? How had he still managed to notice her sneaking two glances at him?
In any case, she absolutely could not admit to it.
Otherwise, it would look as though she had feelings for him.
But when had she ever deceived him?
The original Su Qiao had hardly interacted with him before, had she?
After saving him half a year ago, they had barely met a few times. At most, he had sent people to deliver things to the Su Prime Minister's Estate twice.
