"Forget it if you don't want to eat."
"I'll eat!"
Climbing the mountain too fast left her dying of thirst.
Meng Qianqian washed her hands and hurriedly grabbed the peach as if hesitating would make him regret giving it.
She took a bite.
Mmm, so sweet!
Lu Yuan picked up a white cloth and wiped his dagger.
Meng Qianqian glanced around. "Why did you come to the temple? And why is there no one with you?"
"To see someone."
He answered Meng Qianqian's first question.
Meng Qianqian held the peach in her hands. "Did you see them?"
Lu Yuan replied, "I did."
Meng Qianqian didn't ask whom he had seen because if he wanted to say, he would've said it already.
Meng Qianqian then asked, "Is Prime Minister Xun really your adoptive father?"
Lu Yuan frowned. "So Steward Cen even told you about this?"
Meng Qianqian nodded earnestly.
Lu Yuan muttered coldly, "Traitor."
Meng Qianqian seemed to ask casually, "Over these years, you've been working for your adoptive father, haven't you?"
