"Nanning? Is it really you? Why are you sitting here alone in a daze?" A beautiful girl came over and reached out to hold Nanning's arm.
Nanning was not used to such an intimate gesture, so he took a step back without leaving a trace and said politely, "How is County Lady Qiaoyue? Hello, Miss Zhou."
Zhou Shuang'er was dressed in light-colored clothes, with a few elegant pearl flowers in her hair. Her eyebrows and eyes were lively, and she was pretty and charming. She was not a great beauty, but she was a beautiful girl from a small family, the kind that the ladies in the capital would like.
Next to her stood a young girl in gorgeous clothes. They were of similar age, but had completely different temperaments. Princess Qiao Yue was the great-granddaughter of Prince Duan. She grew up in pampered care and had a hint of pride between her eyebrows.
Princess Qiaoyue forced a kind smile and said, "Nanning, you are too polite. We are friends, and friends don't care about these empty formalities."

County Lady Qiao Yue happened to pass by and ordered her guards to come forward to help. The two became acquainted with each other. After that, Qiao Yue often visited her or invited her out for fun, and the two became familiar with each other.
As for Zhou Shuang'er, she always stayed by the side of County Master Qiao Yue. Over time, Nanning also got to know Zhou Shuang'er.
Nan Ning retorted anxiously, "I didn't! Of course I consider you my friends, but the noble ladies in the capital don't like to associate with me, and I don't like to see their faces. I didn't go to you because I didn't want to cause you any trouble."
