Xia Zheng, who had keen eyes, spotted the jade pendant in Xiao Linshuang's hand and raised his eyebrows, "Ha, that kid actually gave you a gift? Not too shabby!"
When he asked about the jade pendant, Xiao Linshuang clutched it dearly, gave him a glare, and retorted, "Want it? Not giving it to you! Coward!"
Xia Zheng's lips twitched as he pointed to Lao Fan, who was leisurely descending the stairs, "If we're talking about cowards, I believe that person is the real deal, right?"
Lao Fan didn't come out of his room all night. It wasn't until Zhao Hongyan's carriage had gone a long distance that he finally relaxed, coming downstairs with a spring in his step and his grizzled beard turning up happily.
Xiao Linshuang snorted, remembering how she alone had faced Eunuch Chang, that old fox, yesterday, which sparked a mischievous thought in her heart.
