Fu Zhiwen's expression stiffened, and he chuckled in apology, "Sorry, sorry."
After speaking, he picked up the ladle and ran off, fearing the embarrassment if he was mistaken for a rogue.
"Young Master Fu, you haven't fetched the water yet," the Lady in Purple called out.
Hearing this, Fu Zhiwen looked down at the ladle in his hand, a flash of annoyance in his eyes, and turned back to scratch his head and smiled at the Lady in Purple, "I forgot."
His behavior made the Lady in Purple cover her mouth and laugh, and the laugh curved her apricot eyes in a way that made Fu Zhiwen stare, dumbfounded.
Although the lady wasn't breathtakingly beautiful, her smile was pure and soothing to the soul, leaving Fu Zhiwen unable to look away.
The Lady in Purple, realizing belatedly that it was improper for him to stare like that, quickly took the veil hat from the Maid and put it on.
The moment she donned the veil hat, her smile turned melancholic.
