Shen Xingchen didn't ask about it, and Shen Li hadn't paid much attention to what happened last night.
But as soon as Shen Xingchen asked, when Shen Li turned to look at her, he suddenly wanted to give her a smack.
Was this what he taught her? Put on your pants and pretend not to know anyone?
Looking at Shen Xingchen with disdain, Shen Li wanted to educate her a bit. Yet, because he had raised her, taught her himself, he couldn't be bothered to criticize her.
He continued applying face cream and said nonchalantly, "I'm just under the weather."
Shen Xingchen didn't remember what had happened the previous night, and Shen Li wasn't about to remind her either.
Still, his attitude toward Shen Xingchen had noticeably changed.
This change wasn't intentional—it had come suddenly. Suddenly, he began feeling a different kind of emotion toward her, treating her as a peer, as an adult.
