Bai Zehao, who had been listening inside the room, couldn't bear it anymore and jumped to his feet, saying loudly, "If I wanted to gift it to her, how come I didn't give it to her personally? And you even dropped it on the ground. Weren't you afraid it might shatter?"
The little maid Xiaoju, frightened, shivered and quickly said, "I asked the same thing at the time, but Xiaoning told me I didn't understand, said it was all about the mood, and also that the Young Master had to consider his reputation. Then she snatched the Jade Pendant right out of my hands. I was worried and said I would talk to the supervisor, but she threatened me and said if I didn't wise up, the Young Master would chase me away."
