Listening to Bai Yuxi’s question, Ren Qingqiu raised her head, fixing her gaze on Bai Yuxi’s eyes with playful curiosity. “Hmm?”

Bai Yuxi felt as if Ren Qingqiu’s face was suddenly closer to her own, momentarily taken aback.

“Why do you want to know who it was?”

Ren Qingqiu paused her bandaging, laughing nonchalantly, “Are you curious about me?”

At this, Bai Yuxi tightened her fingers, the leather gloves making a sound as they squeaked. “No.”

She looked directly into Ren Qingqiu’s eyes and cleared her throat with a serious tone. “I was just wondering why a freshman like you would know about such things.”

Ren Qingqiu blinked at her and replied, “I thought you were going to give me some profound reason. Isn’t this just your curiosity about me?”

“It’s a question about your personal abilities.” Bai Yuxi corrected her meticulously.

“‘A question about my personal abilities?”

—Isn’t that still just curiosity about me?

Ren Qingqiu repeated it, still unconvinced, “There’s nothing else?”

“No,” Bai Yuxi’s response was firm.

“Why do I feel like you’re lying?”

Ren Qingqiu muttered quietly.

Bai Yuxi heard her and let out a cold huff, her expression stiff.

—She’s definitely thinking, ‘believe it or not’.

Ren Qingqiu felt as if she could read Bai Yuxi’s thoughts.

With a smile, she grabbed a pillow to elevate Bai Yuxi’s left foot, then pressed down on her shoulder, gently guiding her to lean back. “Is this better?”

Bai Yuxi blinked, feeling a noticeable relief in her ankle. “Yeah.”

Listening to her, Ren Qingqiu stood puzzled for a while, watching her in silence.

In the rare quiet, Bai Yuxi, feeling a bit impatient, lifted her head. “Do you have a question?”

“I was just thinking, if you feel better, why don’t you say thank you to me?”

Ren Qingqiu placed her hands behind her back, adopting a slightly superior and dissatisfied demeanor.

Bai Yuxi looked at Ren Qingqiu with a serious frown.

For Bai Yuxi, expressing gratitude wasn’t something she couldn’t do, but seeing Ren Qingqiu’s expression, she felt something was off.
