After running out of the Mitre residence, Yaoyue wandered aimlessly outside, kicking pebbles by the roadside, feeling wronged and a little regretful.
"You damned bastard! I'll kick you to death!"
Yaoyue treated the pebbles on the road as Xu Ran, kicking them back and forth.
She had already regretted it the moment she ran out of the Mitre Family's residence. She really could not blame anyone for this. What did whether Xu Ran liked her have to do with Yao Ye? Besides, her family's rise and fall were tied to Xu Ran. For the sake of her family's fortunes, she should even have been happy that Yao Ye was with him.
Now that she had thrown a tantrum and run out, she must have become an unreasonable troublemaker in Xu Ran's eyes.
"Ah." Yaoyue sighed. She always lost control of her emotions in front of Xu Ran. She clearly wanted to make a good impression, yet every time, it was as though she were deliberately blackening her own name. She wanted to find a tree and bash herself to death against it. How could she be so stupid?
But it was too late for regrets. She could hardly go running back with her tail between her legs.
She had thought Xu Ran would chase after her once she ran out, and had even deliberately slowed down, only for this hateful fellow to!!!
"Hey. Still angry?"
A familiar voice sounded beside her ear. Overjoyed, Yaoyue hurriedly turned to look at the handsome, carefree man beside her, her heart fluttering uncontrollably.
"Hmph, yes, I'm angry. None of your business," Yaoyue said haughtily, suppressing her delight and putting on an angry face.
"Is that really necessary? All I did was try out the knowledge you taught me yesterday."
"Y-you, you..."
Yaoyue was dumbfounded.
