Jiang Yeqian's mind was fixed on the word "friend".
Li Ruoxuan thought he was shocked that he, the State Preceptor, would actually have friends. This made Li Ruoxuan reply even more unperturbed, "I'm having a meal with friends, so I don't have the time to entertain the Head Grand Secretariat. Please go back."
Jiang Yeqian could not help but repeat the word, "Friends."
His abstruse tone was as if accusing, 'You're messing with me!'
He knew, however, that since the State Preceptor had already announced to him that he was having a meal with friends, this meant that all he could do was leave.
So, with a heavy expression, Jiang Yeqian looked at Li Ruoxuan, his gaze profound, before turning to leave.
After Jiang Yeqian left, Zhu Shen hurriedly closed the door again.
Li Ruoxuan glanced at the door that was being observed. He raised his eyelids, his eyes clear and dark. He casually sat down and then asked Qi Qingyao, "Is the wine good?"
