The next day, Bai Ruxue had almost fully recovered.
Xiao Mo was naturally relieved that Ruxue had recovered.
But after Ruxue got better, Xiao Mo couldn't shake the feeling that something was a little strange about her.
Xiao Mo noticed Ruxue frequently stealing glances at him.
Whenever he looked her way, she would quickly avert her gaze, pretending as if nothing had happened.
And once he looked away, she would start peeking at him again.
Take right now, for instance. Ruxue was hanging laundry out to dry.
Even though Xiao Mo was flipping through a book, he could feel Bai Ruxue's eyes on him.
Xiao Mo looked up, his eyes meeting Bai Ruxue's.
Bai Ruxue flinched as if she'd been shocked. She hurriedly looked away, turning back to her laundry and making a show of smoothing out clothes that were already perfectly flat.
Xiao Mo set his book down and walked over to Bai Ruxue.
Sensing Xiao Mo approaching, Bai Ruxue's heart began to beat faster.
