This was the first time Zhao Xiyan openly expressed his liking for her.
Qi Yue was stunned for a moment, then made the excuse that Shen Zikuang had been waiting for a while and rushed out the door first.
If it weren't for that White Jade Hairpin acting up again, she would have almost taken the initiative to kiss Zhao Xiyan.
His lips were well-defined, and his mouth was attractive, looking very kissable.
The words he spoke were so captivating, wrapping around her heart...
Regrettably, the White Jade Hairpin really was like a curse.
The two of them one after the other, quickly arrived at the front hall.
From a distance, they could hear the hearty laughter of Huang Zai'an.
"Master Shen has really flattered this old man..."
The caretaker, Madam Zhang, who stood outside, immediately greeted them with a beaming smile when she saw the pair.
"Miss, Marquis, knowing that you would need a while, this old servant took the initiative to call over Master Huang, please forgive me."
