Jingrui was usually reserved, so just touching Zhu Yan's hand like that was enough to make Zhu Yan too shy to meet his gaze. Feeling a bit embarrassed himself, his face heated up, though he wasn't sure if it was visibly red.
Jingrui could no longer stay there. If someone saw that his face was red, it would be too embarrassing!
He cleared his throat in an attempt to hide his awkwardness before saying, "Let's go!"
Zhu Yan, too nervous to run off again, stiffly nodded her consent and followed Jingrui into the room.
Fang Wanping's eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets when she saw Jingrui take Zhu Yan's hand!
This Zhu Yan was absolutely shameless! Openly seducing the Magistrate, no wonder he had agreed to an arranged marriage with her! She must've been shameless in her advances!
It's not like she came from a prestigious family or was astonishingly beautiful! How could she even compare to herself?!
In frustration, she tried to intervene as they left together, "Magistrate!"
