Chapter 159: Reunion Feast

Ministry of Justice.

Li Anning leaned listlessly in her chair, her mind on other things.

She wondered if she would pass the Imperial Examination and if she could then smoothly join the Ministry of Justice, not having to guess every day whether he would come or not.

It would be dereliction of duty if he dared not come.

In reality, she had always coped with this in the past.

But for some reason, she had grown accustomed to seeing him as soon as she lifted her gaze.

Li Anning sighed internally.

She knew it wasn't good to feel this way, but she just couldn't control her own thoughts.

Li Nuo walked into the government office and asked, "Have there been any cases these past two days?"

Li Anning was about to speak when she noticed a faint lipstick mark on his face, and the smile tugging at the corners of her mouth gradually faded. She pointed expressionlessly at her own face, then handed over a handkerchief.
