Xue Xi was stunned.

Ye Li would clean her room every day. In order to not be discovered, she had placed the medicine that Ji Silin had given her into her bag and carried it with her. She did not expect to be caught.

At this moment, the man's slender fingers pinched the bottle of medicine. The smile on his face did not reach his eyes, causing the atmosphere in the provision store to slightly go down.

A hint of panic flashed across Xue Xi's beautiful eyes. She had a feeling that if this man knew what was inside, he would probably be angry.

She thought about it for a moment and made up a story. "Vitamin."

After saying that, she reached out to snatch it.

However, even though she moved quickly, the man moved even faster. The moment she leaned over, his long legs kicked and he pushed his chair back.

By the time Xue Xi could get up to snatch it, the man had already unscrewed the bottle cap. He took out a pill and gently sniffed it before looking at her.

Xue Xi did not know if it was her illusion, but she felt that his eyes had become colder. A complicated emotion was brewing in his dark brown eyes. It was like the vast starry sky, making one unable to fathom his emotions.

He must have sensed it.

This thought made Xue Xi freeze.

She might as well tell the truth.

Just as Xue Xi was about to speak, the man suddenly lowered his eyes, hiding the anger in them. His eyes instantly softened.

"Oh." He sighed lightly and said softly, "Vitamin."

His voice was very soft and empty, filled with sadness and disappointment.

He placed the medicine back in, twisted the bottle, and returned it to Xue Xi.

Xue Xi was stunned.

She looked down at the bottle in her hand and then looked up at the man.

He looked like a wronged puppy who had been abandoned by its owner, making one's heart soften.

It seemed... Perhaps her actions were too heartless? Did she hurt him?

Xue Xi placed the bottle into her bag and started eating the bun. Just as she took a bite, she heard the other party sigh softly.

The bun in Xue Xi's mouth suddenly did not smell good anymore.

She looked up again and saw that Xiang Huai, who usually fought with her for the bun, was dejected today.

Xue Xi could only hand him a bun. "Eat?"

Xiang Huai took the bun and sat there. After looking at it for a while, he said, "I have no appetite."

"..."

Xue Xi looked at him with misty eyes before replying, "Oh."

After breakfast, Xue Xi grabbed his hand. After holding it for a while, the man suddenly said, "Is it alright?"

Xue Xi, whose heart no longer hurt, was just about to let go and leave.

Now, she paused and did not let go. "...We still need to hold hands for a while."

The man chuckled softly, but his laughter was not as alluring as usual. Instead, it was filled with bitterness.

Xue Xi's heart tightened.
