Meng Xi'er felt a bit of pain from his pinch. She lightly shrunk back and protested, "Let me go. You're hurting me!"
He asked her darkly, "You're actually telling me to touch her?!"
His voice held disbelief, and even a slight hint of sadness and hurt.
Sadness? Hurt?
Meng Xi'er shook her head, thinking how could he possibly be sad or hurt.
"Didn't you say I was dirty?" She looked up at him, "She is cleaner than me, why don't you go find her?"
Lu Yebai frowned slowly, "What are you being so childish about?"
"Childish? How dare I be childish with you?" Meng Xi'er pulled away from his grasp and tried to leave. She was really annoyed, constantly being reminded by Lu Yebai of certain things. He was just looking down on her; it was like this four years ago, and it is still like this now. He scorned her just as before, he still scorned her.
She had had enough. Why did she need him to constantly remind her of these things? To remind her about how unbearable she was in his eyes?
