"Well... Kind of... It's complicated but yeah... I was the one who suggested him to engage with me." said Yan Er.

"Well, I can feel that he is different. From the way he addressed you, he is indeed quite a respectful person who would not easily cross the borderline," said Rei.

Yan Er nodded as a smile could be seen on her slightly blushed face.

"Rei, you have been asking me about my relationship with Lord Mongke, so... don't you think you have anything to tell me? You seem to be having a special relationship with those two noblemen who were with us just now," said Yan Er, who decided to dig into Rei's personal matters instead of keep spilling her own little secret.
