The woman was stunned by the young man’s dazzling smile and nodded blankly.
In the next moment, Xie Xingyun’s gaze was as harsh as if it came from hell. “Are you worthy?”
The woman froze on the spot and stared at him in disbelief. She muttered helplessly, “I was just… I was just…”
Xie Xingyun leaned against the pillar and reached out to slowly take a chopstick from Xiao Zheng. He threw it out with indifference. Almost at the same time, a red mark was left on the woman’s mouth!
“All!”
The woman instantly burst into tears, but she did not dare to say a word.
There was some naughtiness in the young man’s eyes as he said softly, “Apologize.”
“Wha—”
Before the woman could react, two more red marks appeared on her mouth, accompanied with a wailing sound. The chopsticks that fell to the ground were stained with blood from her lips.
Xie Xingyun was expressionless. “Apologize.”
The woman was completely dumbfounded by the burning pain on her lips. Only her maidservant had the hindsight to say, “Miss, apologize to Miss Bai!”
As she spoke, the woman received another blow to her mouth. It was red and swollen, like a sausage mouth, and it was bruised. She hurriedly knelt down and said incoherently, “Young… Young Marquis, I’m sorry. Bai Xianyu, I’m sorry.”
The entire place was silent.
Someone swallowed their saliva silently.
“Young Marquis, I’m sorry. Bai Xianyu, I’m sorry.”
“Bai Xianyu, I’m sorry.”

Xie Xingyun restrained the dark emotions in his eyes and listened in silence. After a while, he glanced at Bai Xianyu’s expression stiffly.
On the railing, cracks spread, and sharp wooden thorns pierced into the side of his hand.
In his previous life, Little Yu had suffered so much.
When these people were gossiping about her behind her back, he was actually still breaking her heart. Day after day, year after year…
Endless regret and heartache almost drowned him.
The throbbing pain in his heart made his breathing painful.
Bai Xianyu no longer had any reaction to these comments, so she could still calmly grab Ji Shuang just now and tell her not to be rash.
Xie Xingyun’s actions were beyond her expectations.
Ji Shuang raised her eyebrows and put away her sword.
The woman kowtowed as she apologized, knocking herself unconscious.
The maidservant beside her hurriedly went to get someone to carry her away. Before she left, she raised her head several times to look at the young man who had his eyes slightly closed and was lost in thought.
Bai Xianyu sat down again and began to eat pastries with Ji Shuang. However, after this incident, the storyteller also coughed awkwardly a few times. “Then… then let’s change a different story.”
Unexpectedly, Xie Xingyun lowered his eyes and said indifferently, “Change to what story?”
The storyteller bowed and said sincerely, “Uh… this… I…”
He was sweating profusely, but he could not figure out the mind of this noble prodigy. He probed, “Change it to ‘The Temple of Immortals’ or something else that you like, Young Marquis? If I knew the story, I would definitely tell you everything I know…”
Bai Xianyu’s gaze was also attracted to it.
Xie Xingyun looked up. “Why don’t you continue the story?”
Everyone was stunned.
Bai Xianyu was also slightly stunned.
The storyteller panicked even more at this moment. Could it be that he was going to settle scores with him?
“You said earlier that this is a new story you made from what you have gathered yourself. Then I’ll give you a more accurate one now.” Xie Xingyun’s gaze was calm.
“She has nothing to do with me.”
Gu Yu raised his eyebrows.
The storyteller lowered his head.
However, a strange thought surged in Bai Xianyu’s heart. She felt that Xie Xingyun had not finished speaking.
“If there was anything, it was…” Xie Xingyun cast a deep and gloomy gaze at Bai Xianyu, “that I pestered her.”
The storyteller was so surprised that he forgot his fear and looked up in a daze.
It was the same for the others. They widened their eyes in disbelief.
Bai Xianyu clenched her slender fingers into a fist, and Ji Shuang was much more direct. She hissed, “What is Xie Xingyun talking about? What kind of occasion is this? If this gets out, the entire capital will probably say that he’s obsessed with you tomorrow.”
Bai Xianyu also wanted to know what Xie Xingyun was doing now…
“But he does seem to be the one who always takes the initiative.” Ji Shuang thought about the number of times she had encountered Xie Xingyun these past few days. Almost every time he saw Little Yu, his calm and indifferent black eyes could not hide the emotions in them. “That’s true, but does he really not care about his face?”
Bai Xianyu frowned slightly.
After hearing Xie Xingyun’s words, the people downstairs also began to whisper..
