Whether it was Song Qing or Song Tianbai, neither gave Huo Guining a good first impression.
At this moment, although Song Tianbai obediently said he had no ulterior motives and was merely curious, Huo Guining didn't believe this nonsense.
She took out a wet wipe to clean her hands, and said languidly, "Is that so? Somehow I don't quite believe it."
As expected, a flash of darkness passed through Song Tianbai's eyes.
Huo Guining lowered her head, the corners of her mouth curling slightly.
"Since you have no purpose, then please don't bother me again in the future. Thank you."
Huo Guining tossed the tissue into the trash can and turned to leave.
A cold sensation suddenly gripped her wrist, sending a shiver through her on this hot summer night.
She hastily shook off Song Tianbai's hand.
"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't put your hands on me!"
Before she could finish speaking, Huo Guining watched in shock as Song Tianbai fell to the ground like a willow in the wind.
Huo Guining looked at her own hands in astonishment: surely she didn't use that much force?
Song Tianbai propped himself up on the ground.
Hearing Huo Guining's words, he pouted pitifully, tears welling up in his dark eyes: "Sister Ning Ning, I'm sorry, I just wanted to chat with you..."
Huo Guining belatedly caught a whiff of tea.
Before she could speak, Old Master Huo's authoritative voice came from behind.
"Ning Ning, what are you doing?"
Huo Guining turned to see Old Master Huo approaching the garden, surrounded by a group of people.
Huo Guining glanced at Song Tianbai on the ground, then at herself standing over him.
As she pondered, Old Master Huo had already arrived in front of her.
Old Master Huo's face was grim as he had someone help Song Tianbai up.
He asked with concern, "Are you alright?"
Song Tianbai's lips curled slightly, putting on an innocent facade: "I'm fine, Grandfather. Please don't blame Sister Ning Ning. I just fell accidentally, it has nothing to do with her."
Huo Guining was inwardly rolling her eyes to the heavens.
Look at him, even a white lotus on a snowy mountain wasn't as pure as he pretended to be.
Old Master Huo, however, simply nodded: "That's good then."
Song Tianbai waited for a while, but when Old Master Huo didn't continue, a flash of confusion crossed his eyes.
Old Master Huo paid him no more attention, instead taking Ning Ning's hand and leading her inside: "Why are your hands so cold?"
Huo Guining obediently replied, "I was just startled by a dog."
Song Tianbai: ...
He looked up at Huo Guining, his eyes somewhat cold.
Old Master Huo seemed to completely miss this subtext: "Even if you were startled, your hands shouldn't be this cold."
"Let's have your grandmother prepare some medicinal soup for you!" Old Master Huo decided firmly.
Huo Guining's heart sank, and she made a mental note against Song Tianbai.
