"Second Brother, you're doing this on purpose!"
It was clear that An Zhiyuan was taking the opportunity to act out.
Bai Xiao ignored him.
An Zhiyuan didn't say a word either. The less he explained, the more it proved there was something wrong. An Zhiyuan truly didn't know about that commotion at the academy; He Weng absolutely wouldn't have told him.
"Oh, so now you're in the right? I can see that boy treats you differently, yet you refuse to explain. Isn't this deliberately making me uncomfortable? Bai Xiao, I know from the very beginning, it was me who took the initiative with this marriage, and you were always reluctant. But later, you said it yourself—you willingly chose to marry me.
I thought we didn't need words, that our hearts were aligned. But now I see, maybe you weren't thinking the same way."
An Zhiyuan's usual care and tenderness toward Bai Xiao had always been apparent, even now, when confronting her after witnessing that scene, his tone remained calm.
