That Won't Do

Voices continued to come from the house.

"What? That kid still dares to covet our Xiao Ba?!" San San laughed. "Who doesn't know that our Xiao Ba always walks past the garden but doesn't stain herself? What is she thinking?"

Yan Qing's brows twitched.

Chu Liuyue's tone was light. "Xiao Ba is born beautiful and is the highlight no matter where she goes. There are so many people who like her, and there's nothing surprising about it."

"Master, what did Xiao Ba say then?"

"What else could she say? That Liang He is indeed okay in other areas, but his looks are average, so Xiao Ba did not take a fancy to him."

"Tsk, her standards are so high—I think very few people can reach that! Hey, Master, that Liang He didn't do anything outrageous, right? In this day and age, there are many perverts! What if he likes her but can't get her and does something to Xiao Ba—"

Yan Qing looked down, and a cold gleam flashed across his eyes.
