Gouge His Eyes Out?

"Are you ready?" Lin Xiaofei heard the Duke say to her as his hand was on the door, about to open it.

She nodded her head and thought that his question was unfounded. Lin Xiaofei didn't feel anxious when the thought of being in front of everyone else. He already told her that the people in the Qu residence will welcome her once she stepped her foot on the Qu residence and thanks to that, she could more or less prepare her heart and nerve from getting nervous.

They both stepped down from the carriage. Qu Xing Xu was the first one to set his feet on the ground and instead of walking ahead, he waited for her to come out.

Like a servant waiting on his Madame, he held his hand out for her to hold which Lin Xiaofei gladly took. She couldn't help but notice one thing when she touched his hand and felt him supporting her weight.
