Qiao Xiang was strikingly beautiful, her noble demeanor shining through naturally, forcing one to marvel at her dazzling radiance.
Her features were bright and clear, her long hair cascaded in large, wavy tendrils down her back, amplifying her allure, especially her eyes which, when looking at Pei Liyan, were heart-wrenchingly tender.
Although her appearance was the kind that should seem cold and calculating, that expression of pitiable sweetness somehow didn't seem out of place on her.
Pei Liyan glanced at her and nodded slightly. "You're back?"
"Yes, I'm back." Qiao Xiang offered a shy smile. "How have you been?"
"Not too bad," Pei Liyan replied.
Qiao Xiang looked up at him again, her eyes filled with unsaid words, tender and soft as if gazing at a lover. "I've been so worried about you, I'm glad you're okay."
Strong tea, indeed.
Qiao Rui was momentarily taken aback by Qiao Xiang's coquettish behavior in front of Pei Liyan.
