Thinking back on the past, Xu Musen also felt a bit sentimental.
"You could have reminded me too, my hair was almost roasted, and you didn't make a sound."
"I didn't want to damage your confidence. Some people, when they got angry in the past, wouldn't eat for a whole day."
Yao Mingyue thought of the Xu Musen of the past, still a childish ghost.
Xu Musen laughed. The him from before was like most boys, mischievous and naughty, unable to do anything right, always making a mess of things despite trying to help, and yet he had a pretty strong sense of pride.
He'd "fast" in protest or run away from home at the slightest dissatisfaction.
"Those are all things from a long time ago."
Xu Musen spoke softly, his technique of drying Yao Mingyue's hair now far more skilled than some Tony stylists.
In their past life, Yao Mingyue would always nestle in his embrace after a shower, letting Xu Musen dry her hair for her.
