Bai Xiao didnât want to waste more words with this girl whoâs clearly deaf in the ear. Pushing his arm to help himself up from the bed, the young lad didnât think much of the act until he suddenly came crashing down from the side and hitting the floor board. Thatâs how it donned on him the condition he was in before falling unconscious â he became seriously injured and eventually went black.
âYou...â Lotus reflexively jerked backwards to avoid the guy who made the abrupt move, âyou wonât get any sympathy from me even if you do this. I wonât accept you so you can forget it.â
I would rather give the Snow Clan to Big Cousin than to give it to him. No outsider will take my familyâs wealth and power away by using underhanded means. Only Big Cousin can bring glory to the family, I donât get what Father sees in this guy....
Due to the noise from the inside, one of the maids standing watch outside immediately came running in to help. However, Bai Xiao has never been accustom to having strangers touch him, thatâs why he swiped the helping hand away without forethought.
This wouldnât be anything special aside from being a bit rude, but in Lotusâs view, this behavior only appeared even more disgusting like heâs trying to get her to personally help.
âDonât think I canât tell, you not letting the maid help you is to have me do it. Iâm stating this now, I wonât touch you, not even a pinky! If I must help anyone, it will only be my cousin who gets it. Youâre such a delusional fool, donât think everyone can be so easily deceived by your act.â
Caring even less at the rant coming his way, Bai Xiao pulls himself back up using the bed corner. Sweating in the forehead as he spoke: âScram!â
Stumbling backwards due to the outburst coming at herself, âAre you putting up a act again?â
It must be because I saw through his plan of acting hard to get, thatâs why he scolded me so that I would be more interested. Humph, Iâve seen too many people like that, always acting so cool and tempered before me. Theyâre all the same, conniving after my familyâs wealth and influence. Only Big Cousin is different, only he would use his own abilities to achieve great things.
BaI Xiao could tell his words would never get through this strange girl and decides to not even give it a effort. Itâs not like he needs to anyways. If he could move then he could leave, by then he would never need to speak to this unreasonable person. The only issue was would they let him leave, thatâs the main problem.....
âIâm warning you again, I will never marry you so you better lose that idea. Your dream will never come true!â With a glare as her final act, Lotus quickly turns for the door and ran outside.
Once she was alone again, the young miss of this household immediately scans the surrounding for signs of others. Upon certain thereâs no one around, she promptly tosses the dagger hiding under her sleeve away. Only then did she head towards the guest room where her supposed lover resides.
Wen Yi has been standing at the entranceway during this period. Heâs also part of the plot to kill Bai Xiao so of course he would be wary. âLotus, how did it go?â
Making a aggrieved face as she walked over after hearing that, âI failed, that asshole woke up before I could move. I got scared since the commotion would alert my father....â
Without surprise, the gentle light in the manâs eyes quickly shifted to that of disappointment, but heâs not one to give up so easily. Pressing down his internal emotion, the guy pulls out his almost cooing voice, âIt doesnât matter, a failure is a failure. Since heâs awaken now, we only need to threaten him a bit to give up the initiative.â
âYou donât know Big Cousin, heâs trying to play hard to get with me. Thereâs no way he would let go so easily.â Stomping her feet in frustration, Snow Lotus acts like sheâs been sexually harassed by the mere idea.
