Ning Xin, who had always been eloquent with her words, was rendered speechless by Jun Xie's unconventional words. Her mind was a complete blank and she did not know what to say.
Ning Xin felt that if she were to continue talking to Jun Xie, things would only become more and more awkward. Jun Xie was being so unfriendly towards Yin Yan and he must still hold a grudge against Yin Yan. It seemed that she would need Yin Yan to apologize first.
After making up her mind, Ning Xin did not persist in asking Jun Xie to speak, but turned her attention back to Fan Zhuo. She put on a bashful demeanor, her words filled with concern.
Fan Zhuo was a good natured person, and invited Ning Xin to stay for tea.
Ning Xin hurriedly took out the snacks she had prepared for Jun Xie, seemingly inadvertently, in an attempt to close the distance between the two of them without batting an eyelid.
Jun Xie sat at the side with the little black cat in her arms. Ning Xin's unwarranted flattery was a little too obvious. Jun Xie had stayed in the little bamboo grove for quite some time and she had never seen Ning Xin come by. But not long after the Spirit Hunt had ended, Ning Xin had come knocking on her door, and her words had even sounded like they were on good terms.
If Jun Xie still could not see through Ning Xin's intentions, she would have lived two lives in vain.
But, since someone was willing to come knocking on her door to make her uncomfortable, she wouldn't have to reject them, would she?
Jun Xie picked up the snacks and ate them nonchalantly. When Ning Xin saw that Jun Xie had taken a bite, she relaxed a little.
Fan Zhuo was the most natural among the three, acting like he did not know anything and was just chatting idly with his roommates and his fiancée.
Ning Xin patiently went along with Jun Xie, but she was secretly observing Jun Xie.
If not for the fact that Jun Xie had a few purple spirits backing him up, just Jun Xie's attitude towards her would have been enough to make her flip the table and fall out with Jun Xie.
But now, Ning Xin could only grit her teeth and bear with it, and she had to keep him company with a smile on her face. She had never been able to endure this before.
After enduring for half a day, Ning Xin finally could not take it any longer. She bid farewell to Fan Zhuo and Jun Xie with a smile on her face, and left in a hurry without even taking the lunchbox. As she left, she forced a smile on her face and promised to come visit often.
After Ning Xin left, Fan Zhuo suddenly put down the snacks in his hand and looked up at Jun Xie with a smile on his face.
"Little Xie, do you like these snacks?"
Jun Wu Xie replied, "Not bad."
"Since it's not your favorite, then don't eat it." Upon saying that, Fan Zhuo stretched his hand out and took the half-eaten snack from Jun Xie's hand and threw it into the food container. He closed the lid and carried it out, leaving it in a corner of the kitchen, where he brought some chestnut cakes over to share with Jun Xie.
Jun Wu Xie watched Fan Zhuo's actions silently and a strange thought suddenly rose in her mind. She looked at Fan Zhuo's gentle smiling face and the chestnut cake in her mouth slowly melted and flowed down her throat.
"You don't like him?" Jun Wu Xie suddenly asked.
Fan Zhuo faltered slightly before a smile appeared on his face. "She's not good. Don't come into contact with her, Little Xie."
Jun Wu Xie stared at the unlucky fellow who had been born with a weak body and a gentle personality. She stared at him for a long while and when she saw that the gentle smile on Fan Zhuo's face did not fade, she turned her gaze away, but did not reply to Fan Zhuo's words.
That night, when night fell, Fan Zhuo got up from his bed, dressed only in an unlined robe, and went into the kitchen. He lit up the stove and threw the lunchbox into the roaring flames.
The flames crackled loudly and the bright red flames shone upon Fan Zhuo's handsome face. Under the light of the flames, his face did not have the usual gentle smile and gentleness, and his clear eyes were filled with a cold and sinister glint.
