He could walk without a cane now, yet he limped more without it and wasn’t as convenient as when he had it. As he passed by a Rouge shop, he accidentally tripped and fell.

His right hand scraped against the chipped edge of the shop’s steps, hissing out a long gash, blood spilling everywhere. _{ƒrēewebnovel.com}

He didn’t mind the injury or the pain, hastily crawling up to continue moving forward.

"Brother-in-law?"

A fifteen-year-old girl in pink clothes hurried out from the Rouge Shop; her attire wasn’t extravagant but she was very pretty and charming.

Xiao Liulang, however, as if he hadn’t heard the call of ’brother-in-law,’ kept dragging his feet forward.

Yao Xin hitched up her skirt and followed in quick, small steps. As she was about to exit the alley, she stepped in front of him, blocking his way, "Brother-in-law, it really is you! Do you still remember me? I’ve been to Bishui Alley—I am Xin’er!"

Yao Xin, the daughter of the Yao Family’s elder brother, strictly speaking, should call Xiao Liulang ’cousin brother-in-law,’ but she omitted the ’cousin’ part.

Xiao Liulang’s frown deepened, seemingly whether he remembered her or not, he had no intention of engaging with her.

Yao Xin seemed oblivious to Xiao Liulang’s aloofness; her gaze swept over and noticed his bleeding hand, her face paled as she exclaimed, "Brother-in-law! What happened to your hand! Are you hurt? Where did you get hurt?"

Xiao Liulang didn’t even spare her a glance, taking another step forward.

Yao Xin, in a moment of panic, reached out to grab him.

Xiao Liulang dodged and fell again!

Yao Xin: "..."

Yao Xin squatted down guiltily, "I’m so sorry, so sorry! Brother-in-law, I didn’t mean to! I never thought to push you! Were you frightened by me! Your hand..."

With that fall, Xiao Liulang’s hand stretched out on the ground, bleeding even more.

Yao Xin hurriedly extended her hand to help him, "Let me take you to the Medical Hall!"

"No need," Xiao Liulang said blandly. "Don’t touch me."

Yao Xin’s hand froze mid-air.

Being rejected is always embarrassing; most people would have left in shame by now, but Yao Xin didn’t.

She swallowed all the embarrassment and shyness, pinched the handkerchief in her hand, lowered her head, tucked a stray lock of hair behind her ear, and quietly said, "You, you’re injured so badly, at least let me wrap it up for you."

This was the demure and timid demeanor of a young girl.

When a woman seduces or approaches a man, men either truly understand or pretend not to.

Xiao Liulang originally only felt unfamiliarity and disassociation towards Yao Xin, but now, a few degrees of coldness had crept into his eyes.

He looked at her coolly, "Do you want to become my concubine?"

It never occurred to Yao Xin that this man would suddenly say something like that.

She was stunned.

Sitting on the cold ground, Xiao Liulang watched her with a mocking laugh, "What’s wrong? Did I say something incorrect? You don’t like me? Don’t want to climb into my bed?"
