This Is Truly a Great Favor
Cui Yi immediately shut his mouth. He looked frustrated, wondering why he stammered!
Gu Shiyan boarded the carriage with a puzzled expression. Her gaze fell on Cui Yan, and she was slightly taken aback. A phrase flashed through her mind: "Gentleman as Jade."
Even though he was dressed in plain clothes, with a white silk ribbon tied around his head to secure his dark hair, when he sat there, everything else became secondary.
"May I ask what great favor I owe Master?" she asked directly.
The previous incident didn't count.
Cui Yan glanced at her indifferently. "There are many people in this world who long to see me but can't. Yet, you are able to share a carriage with me. You should consider that a favor!"
He poured a cup of clear tea and placed it in front of Gu Shiyan. "Look, I even poured you a cup of tea myself. Isn't that a great favor?"
Gu Shiyan was instantly at a loss.
This...worked!
