Su Ye's mouth twitched as she listened to his self-righteous words.
Maybe it was because the sky was so dark and the moonlight so faint, or for some other reason entirely.
But the more she looked at him, the paler his face seemed to grow.
While she was thinking, Su Qing had already made his way over to her.
Leaning against the pagoda tree for support, Su Ye silently took two steps back.
Seeing her retreat, Su Qing stopped. His dark eyes stared at her, and even the hint of a smile on his lips seemed to fade.
He lowered his gaze, hiding the emotion in his eyes.
He raised a hand to cover his lips.
"COUGH, COUGH."
He coughed again, his body swaying for a moment before he stumbled back a step.
Seeing his state, Su Ye thought he was about to fall.
She quickly reached out and grabbed him.
'If he falls in my courtyard, I'll never be able to answer for it.'
Perhaps because she was so nervous, she used a bit too much force.
Su Qing was pulled right into her.
