The Hidden Guard retrieved the thrown silver hairpin and also snagged a clam pearl, putting Xingxing in a great mood.
After the initial excitement waned, Xingxing started to settle accounts with the Hidden Guard.
No matter how much money he had, he shouldn't have thrown her silver hairpin.
The hairpin did nothing to provoke or offend him.
The silver hairpin was a gift from a guard who thanked her for tying him to a tree to save him from an assassin's pursuit!
Xingxing showed an angry face.
The Hidden Guard realized he was overthinking.
In Xingxing's eyes, the hairpin was simply a token of gratitude, nothing more complicated.
He had made things too complicated.
The Hidden Guard admitted his mistake, and Xingxing forgave him.
Having resolved her lifelong concern, she no longer worried about overeating and not being able to marry; Xingxing was happier than ever.
