The knocking echoed.
Bai Xiao leaned back in his chair, not wishing to respond, but alas, the persistent knocking continued.
Shuffling his slippers, Bai Xiao asked, "Who is it?"
It seemed unlikely that Bai Mei would show up so soon.
Still, for safety's sake, it was best to be cautious.
"Bai Song!"
With a whoosh, he flung open the door.
Sure enough, his older brother Bai Song's familiar smile greeted him, and Bai Xiao immediately threw himself into his arms, "Big Brother, you finally made it. I've missed you to death!"
"Cough, cough..."
Faced with An Zhiyuan's helpless expression, Bai Xiao sheepishly retracted his hands. How come his man was here too?
Could this be a misunderstanding?
It shouldn't be, right?
Is it only permissible for officials to start fires and forbidden for the common people to light lamps?
An Zhiyuan was just completing a task, and you had to fly off the handle and give him no quarter; what are you doing now?
This is not your real brother.
