I returned to my room, my hands and feet ice cold.
I sank into the sofa, and it wasn't until I came to my senses that I realized Sang Shixi was also in the room.
I didn't know when he had come back, and I hadn't noticed him at all when I entered the room.
I glanced at him and stood up, ready to take a shower, but he called out to me.
"Since you didn't do it, why did you admit it?"
I turned around quickly, looking at him: "Were you eavesdropping on our conversation?"
He didn't directly answer my question, and since Sang Qi and I were talking in the garden, where sound can travel unhindered, it was normal for someone to overhear.
I narrowed my eyes, the snow in the garden earlier had been so glaring it made my eyes hurt.
"Does it make a difference? In any case, he believes it now." I said as if I hadn't admitted it, it was just that I hadn't denied it.
"Aren't you afraid he'll misunderstand you?"
