"It took you so long to realize that?" Hexin raised an eyebrow.

Yuan You pondered this before she was able to react. "Cousin Hexin, even you are bullying me…"

"I did." Hexin nodded. A thought crossed her mind and she turned to glance at Yuan You. "What's wrong? Are you feeling unhappy about it?"

Yuan You was taken aback. "Why would I feel unhappy about it?"

"Didn't you have a crush on His Majesty?" Hexin asked in a straightforward manner.
