Ye Tianyi was certainly not a beast.
It was just... he didn't really dare to.
Think about it—if it had been some other girl, like Shi Jiayi, or maybe even Yi Qiyue, Ye Tianyi might have dared. Her clothes were covered in blood, her wounds and all that—helping her change clothes so she wouldn't be uncomfortable, wasn't that perfectly normal?
But when facing Li Xian'er, Ye Tianyi hadn't dared to do that.
Even...
When he saw her unconscious back then, Ye Tianyi had thought, Fine, I won't do it. But helping you take off your veil shouldn't be a problem, right? There's blood on the veil too.
Alright, he wouldn't take it off. But surely lifting it up for one quick look at her face would be fine?
Logically, that was a perfectly normal thing to do—just lift it and take a look.
But for some reason, Ye Tianyi had been inexplicably possessed by a ghost and done nothing at all. He hadn't even casually lifted it for a glance.
That was really strange.
Ye Tianyi wrestled with it for a while. What he was conflicted about was nothing more than the sense of mystery. For no apparent reason, he wanted Li Xian'er to retain that mystery in his Inner Heart. He didn't particularly want to break that feeling of mystery, including by seeing what she looked like.
And honestly, that feeling was pretty nice.
Li Xian'er Stood Up, found a place to change into a fresh set of clothes and a new veil, then walked back over.
By the time she came over, Ye Tianyi had stood up as well.
"Praise me."
Ye Tianyi grinned at her.
"What?" Li Xian'er looked at Ye Tianyi in confusion.
"Hey, you were asleep for three days. I didn't do anything at all.
