"...Wanwan," Pei Yuqing finally spoke, his voice hoarse.
Xie Wanqing was overjoyed, thinking he had finally stopped holding back. But as soon as she turned around, she saw the medicine bottle in his hand being handed over. Her curved lips instantly dropped.
A raging fire of anger erupted from somewhere, rushing to her head, burning away her rationality. She snatched the Jade Bottle and threw it directly into the lake.
"Who wants your pills! Pei Yuqing, don't you think your behavior is inappropriate? On one hand, you seem gentle and considerate to me, yet on the other, you never admit your feelings. Are you trying to string me along with your hot-and-cold treatment?"
"No," Pei Yuqing clenched his now empty hand tightly. It was hard to see his expression in the night, but his tone carried rare confusion, "I never intended to lead you on."
"Really?" Xie Wanqing sneered, "Then tell me, what exactly is our relationship?"
Friends?
