A gift?
What kind of gift could Chu Lan prepare for me?
If he wanted to bestow rewards, he could simply send them over. Why all this mystery?
Besides, he's a prince, and I'm a maiden yet to leave my boudoir. It's inappropriate for him to privately summon me.
Despite her suspicions, Wei Ruo had no choice but to agree.
Chu Lan's invitation had left her no room to refuse.
"Then I will have to trouble Nanny Qin to lead the way," said Wei Ruo.
"My lady, there's no need for formalities. Please, follow me." Nanny Qin replied.
Wei Ruo, accompanied by Xiumei, got into the carriage sent by Chu Lan, following Nanny Qin's lead.
The carriage took Wei Ruo to the Yusheng Tea House. Afterward, in the company of Nanny Qin, they entered a tea room.
Inside the tea room, there was only Chu Lan.
He wore a dark green brocade robe adorned with circular patterns, his hair held up with a jade crown. Sitting leisurely by a window-side tea table, he appeared to be immersed in savoring his tea.
