Chapter 275: Chapter 257, Flintlock_1
“Master, here is the handkerchief you asked for!”
Inside the cabin, Defu entered with several clean cotton handkerchiefs, glanced at Miss Yan who stood obediently, and then at their silent master sitting down. With swift movements, he placed the handkerchiefs on the table, then quickly withdrew.
Upon seeing the handkerchiefs, Daohua glanced at her wet hair and immediately smiled, reaching for a handkerchief, “These are for drying my hair, right?”
While speaking, she brought her black hair to the front of her body, then began to rub it with the handkerchief.
Xiao Yeyang glanced at Daohua, stood up with a stern face, and snatched the handkerchief away.
Frowning with confusion, Daohua asked, “What are you doing?”
“Sit down!”
Xiao Yeyang gestured with his chin towards the stool.
Daohua looked at Xiao Yeyang’s expression, thought for a moment, and obediently sat down.
As soon as she sat, she felt her hair being swept back, and turning her head, she saw Xiao Yeyang holding the handkerchief, ready to wipe her hair.
Daohua: “That, I can do it myself!” With that said, she reached out to take the handkerchief.
This time, because she followed Xiao Yeyang out on short notice, and the porridge stand needed people, she and Yuanyao had not brought any attendants and had to wipe their hair by themselves.
Xiao Yeyang raised his hand, avoiding Daohua’s hand, and said expressionlessly, “Sit still!”
Daohua: “…”
Glancing at Xiao Yeyang, she thought to herself that this guy was still angry, and it would be better for her to go along with him.
So, she put her hand down and sat still.
Only then did Xiao Yeyang start to wipe Daohua’s hair.
Daohua sat obediently, and after a while, seeing that he was only silently wiping her hair and not speaking, she knew that he was holding in his anger and thus took the initiative to start a conversation.
“That, you should know that I value my life and wouldn’t joke about it.”
Xiao Yeyang didn’t respond but fetched a new dry handkerchief and continued wiping her hair.
Seeing this, Daohua couldn’t help but turn her head to look at Xiao Yeyang’s expression.
Immediately, Xiao Yeyang said, “Don’t move around!”
His tone was somewhat sharp, still angry.
With a sigh in her heart, Daohua continued, “I thought it through before I jumped into the water to save someone. First, I can swim; second, I had a rope tied to me.”
“I know, you’re going to say there’s always a ‘what if,’ but even if the rope broke, you were still there, right!”
“You were on the boat, and there were so many other boatmen who could swim, could they really not save me?”
“If that were the case, then I would have deserved whatever happened…”
Before she could finish, Daohua felt her hair tighten, and turning her head, she saw Xiao Yeyang looking at her with a displeased expression.
“Who curses themselves like that?”
Daohua murmured, “I was just speaking without thinking.”
Xiao Yeyang: “…You better keep quiet!” With that, he accidentally wiped her hair a bit too hard and caused her pain.
“Ow!”
Daohua quickly reached up to grab her hair, looking at Xiao Yeyang with dissatisfaction, “Did you do that on purpose?”
Xiao Yeyang intended to explain, but didn’t want to back down, so he just kept a straight face and remained silent.
Seeing him like this, Daohua huffed, letting her hair down, “Forget it, I’ll be the bigger person and not hold this against you.”
Seeing Daohua sit back down, Xiao Yeyang picked up the handkerchief and started wiping again.
