Cen Xi froze slightly.
She was about to take her hand from Bai Lin's grasp when a sharp pain trailed from her forehead. He had flicked her. "What are you thinking about?" Bai Lin furrowed his eyebrows as he scolded, "We all have to be stern when we need to, and relax when we need to. Especially you, little sister."
Cen Xi laughed awkwardly. "Brother Bai Lin, I thought too much into your actions. Do you know, that day, Uncle Bai told me…"
"Don't listen to the Old Man's weird ramblings."
Cen Xi broke out in laughter, her smile brighter than the sun.
