In the old mansion.
That night, it started to snow again.
However, it did not take long for the snow to lessen.
Song Zhi had been shoveling snow in the courtyard since early in the morning. He had just shoveled it clean and would probably be busy again the next morning!
Under the moonlight, a man was sitting on the stone steps outside the long corridor.
From day to night, Bai Yin had been waiting in the courtyard for an entire day with the sword that Lian Que had left behind.
He was almost in the same position.
He sat there with one hand on his knee and the other holding the intricately carved longsword on the ground.
His gaze was fixed on the pitch-black night sky!
Even though he had been waiting for an entire day, he did not seem anxious at all.
Song Zhi quietly brought a cup of hot water and placed it by his hand.
He said, "Bai Yin, drink some hot water and warm yourself up."
Bai Yin replied with a "Mm".
Then, she poured the hot water into her mouth.
He looked very forthright!
Song Zhi didn't want to disturb him, but seeing that he had been sitting there for so long, he felt sorry for him. He asked weakly, "The weather is so cold, why don't … you go in and wait? What if you catch a cold?"
"It's fine."
"But..."
"Go in, don't worry about me."
Song Zhi wanted to say something but stopped himself. He sighed and insisted, "I'll go get you a warmer."
He was very enthusiastic.
He was really worried that Bai Yin would get frostbite.
Bai Yin raised her eyes and glanced at him.
Her eyes were filled with mixed feelings!
She was not moved.
"Master Song, don't worry about me. Go and do your own things."
Song Zhi opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, they became, "Alright then, if you don't see anyone, hurry up and go rest. The weather is so cold, even if your body is made of steel, you won't be able to endure it."
Bai Yin replied with a "Mm".
There was nothing else she could say.
Song Zhi stood there for a while, then left.
Bai Yin continued to wait in the same spot.
Not long after, Lang Po arrived!
He held a cucumber in his hand and walked up to Bai Yin while munching on it. Then, he leaned half his body against a pillar and stared at the man's straight back. "How much longer do you want to wait? That man isn't messing with you, is he? "
Hearing this, Bai Yin's eyes flickered.
Silence. "Look at you, I've waited here from morning till night, but I've never seen someone with such willpower like you. No! I should say that you are strange. Aren't you just waiting for someone? Why did he have to tire himself out? If that person came, he would naturally take the initiative to look for you. Would he be afraid that you would run away? As the saying goes, the monk can run, but the temple can't. Since he knows that you are here, then even if you go into the house and wait, he can still find you! But you're sitting in this heavy snow. If you freeze, who's going to feed you? If you ask me, you're just too stubborn. He asked you to wait, didn't he?
To make you wait like this, you … "
Lang Po was like a chatterbox, he couldn't stop talking.
He rattled off a whole bunch of things!
Bai Yin acted as if she could not hear him and completely ignored him.
"I'm talking to you! Do you hear me? "
"…"
"Don't tell me you're frozen stiff?" Lang Po said worriedly as he stepped forward to check.
But Bai Yin was sitting there perfectly fine.
Not frozen stiff, not dead.
Lang Po heaved a sigh of relief and pushed Bai Yin's shoulder. "Look at you. If you're fine, why didn't you respond to me? I was scared to death just now."
He was so scared that he almost dropped the huge chunk of cucumber in his hand!
Bai Yin rolled her eyes at him. "You've already said everything. What else can I say?"
"Then you should've just said yes."
"Yes!"
"…" Lang Po's forehead twitched. "I think you shouldn't wait anymore. It's already so late. If he wanted to come, he would've come a long time ago. I think he's just messing with you."
Bai Yin waved the sword in her hand. "The thing is still in my hands. He won't not come."
Lang Po stared at the sword. Suddenly, his eyes darted around. He sat down beside Bai Yin and reached for the sword. "Is this sword very important? Let me have a look. "
Bai Yin blocked it with her hand.
His hand, which was reaching for the sword, missed.
He stiffened in the air.
It was extremely awkward.
Hmph!
"Look at how stingy you are. It's just a sword. What's so strange about it? "As he spoke, Lang Po took a big bite of the cucumber.
He chewed with all his might!
Bai Yin ignored him.
Lang Po glanced at him and leaned in close to him again. He asked teasingly, "Bai Yin, do you know what you look like now?"
"What?"
"Like … a dainty woman waiting for her husband to return."
Ugh!
Dainty woman?
Bai Yin frowned.
He glared at Lang Po who was beside him. That bastard was currently laughing so hard that his limbs were splayed out.
He almost flipped over and fell backwards.
Bai Yin wanted to beat the crap out of you, but his rationality restrained that urge in his heart.
So, he decided not to speak to Lang Po.
He even rolled his eyes at him.
After Lang Po was done laughing, he patted Bai Yin's shoulder and said in a sarcastic tone, "Don't be angry! I was just saying it casually. Actually, you don't look like a dainty woman. Dainty women are usually slender and delicate. They speak softly too. How can they be like you? "
"Like me?"
"That's right, like you! Look at you, you're big and burly with sallow skin. You're not a dainty woman! "
The corner of Bai Yin's mouth twitched!
He tightened his grip on the sword.
Lang Po furrowed his brows again and said thoughtfully, "But honestly, even if you're not a dainty woman, you're still a dainty man."
Dainty … Dainty woman?
What kind of freaking species is this?
It makes one's entire body go numb!
"..." Bai Yin held his breath as his face turned green. He gritted his teeth and said, "Enough, that's enough."
If you keep talking, I won't be able to control the wild energy in my heart!
Lang Po was nonchalant, "I was just making a random analogy. Don't take it seriously. I said dainty woman, not you."
"..."
"Oh, right!" Lang Po suddenly remembered something. He handed the cucumber in his hand to Bai Yin and asked enthusiastically, "Do you want some?"
Bai Yin's face turned even more green when he saw the half-eaten cucumber in front of him.
He forced out two words, "No."
"I purposely left half of it for you."
"I'm not eating!"
"I've washed it clean."
"I have no appetite."
"The cucumber is an appetizer."
"I don't feel like eating tonight."
"You …"
Before he could finish, Bai Yin interrupted him, "What's the matter?"
Lang Po thought for a moment and shrugged, "Nothing."
He was just bored out of his mind.
That was why he had come out for a walk.
As he spoke, he took another bite of the cucumber.
Bai Yin took a deep breath and said, "Since you're fine, hurry up and get some rest. I'll wait a little longer. I'll wait alone."
