The gate of Chen Mansion.
Pei Yuenan stood here, hesitating to take her first step into the mansion.
As soon as she received Liu Rushi's reply, she hurried over.
Just one step away, she stopped.
In the past, she felt that her sisterly bond with Liu Rushi was pure, untainted by anything.
But,
ever since she broached the subject, she felt unworthy of such a pure friendship.
Suddenly,
"Creak~~"
The heavy sound of the Chen Mansion gate echoed.
Liu Rushi appeared.
"I calculated the time you'd arrive by now, why are you standing there? Come in quickly."
"Yes, I'm coming!"
With just two sentences, the two women exchanged smiles.
In that moment, all previous misunderstandings vanished like smoke.
And Liu Rushi, as usual, linked arms with Pei Yuenan and walked into the Chen Mansion together.
...
"Have a good talk, the Young Master's personality is very good, he's not a petty person, especially towards women."
Under the veranda, Liu Rushi said softly.
