Su Jing slowly sat up straight, not uttering a single word, her lips tightly pressed into a bright red line.
Seated amidst the jade stones in the lake, her blushed cheeks turned to one side, her ink-black hair damp and resting on her snowy shoulders, her strands of hair floated like seaweed with the waves, contrasting her clear skin, adding a hint of tender shyness within the stark black and white.
One arm cradled her knees, the other hand covered her belly, lost and unsure, while her small, white, cute ears drooped back against her head.
She looked like a bullied little rabbit with nowhere to seek comfort, not even knowing how to let out a cry in anger and embarrassment.
In the dark night, the two sat back to back.
Baili An fumbled with the pebbles at the bottom of the pond, overwhelmed at that moment with shame, at a loss for words, and regret, emotions so heavy he could hardly breathe.
What on earth was happening today...
