If she laughed now, the whole pavilion would explode.
So Bai Lingling pressed her lips together, lifted one hand, and covered the lower half of her face as if she were only hiding a polite little cough. In truth, she was hiding the smile that was already trying very hard to break loose.

This was too much.
This was too funny.
This was so funny that if she remembered it later while eating, she might choke on her rice.
Little Black, meanwhile, stopped walking.
He had no interest in Yan Hai beyond this point.
In his view, the man had already disgraced himself so thoroughly that there was no need to continue. So he only flicked his tail once, turned away as if nothing worth seeing remained, and calmly returned to Bai Lingling's side.
That movement somehow made the whole thing even worse.
Because it was as if the beast himself had already decided that Yan Hai was not worth another glance.
