With these thoughts, Jiang Li grew increasingly anxious and urged the coachman several times, wishing she could arrive at the Ye Residence sooner to prevent Jih Heng from getting there first and meeting Xue Huaiyuan.
Tonger saw her anxiety and felt it peculiar, trying to console her, "Miss, the roads are slippery due to the rain; we cannot travel too fast. We left early today, there's plenty of time, and we won't be late. Elder Master Ye won't blame you."
Jiang Li managed a strained smile. At long last, they caught sight of the large gates of the Ye Residence. The coachman pulled the reins, and the carriage came to a stop at the entrance. Bai Xue got off first, holding an umbrella, followed by Tonger helping Jiang Li down. The three of them walked towards the Ye Residence together.
The doorkeeper, well-acquainted with them, opened the gate. Jiang Li asked, "Has anyone else arrived?"
The servant blinked, "Other people? No, isn't Miss Biao the only visitor today?"
