Xiao Zhongxuan remained silent, and his demeanor instantly changed after he put on the mask.
Just as he was about to leave, he glanced at Kong Qing again and asked, "What do you think of my attire today?"
"He is handsome and has an exceptional temperament."
"Wouldn't black be too oppressive? Would silver-white or sandy blue be better?"
Kong Qing pursed her lips.
Choosing clothes?
He really didn't have much experience in this area.
Meanwhile, Chen Zhiyi had already arrived at Tingzhi Water Pavilion.
It was her first time here, and she had assumed that the Regent would ask her to meet in some secluded, dark place.

this……
It sounds like Song Yuxiu's voice.
"Miss Chen, I'll go take a look." Before the woman could move, Chen Zhiyi heard someone calling from outside again.
"Are you having an affair?!"
"Did you already have a lover before the divorce?"
It really was Song Yuxiu!
That scumbag!
Why does it keep haunting me?
