Qingyin didn't care whether the others reacted or not, and directly entered the carriage under the guard of Xiaoyue and Zengli, blocking all the infatuated gazes.
Even halfway there, the guards hadn't come to their senses. They continued blindly walking back towards the Lin residence, their eyes occasionally glancing expectantly or fervently at the sedan chair with its doors and windows tightly shut, only to be fiercely glared back at by Zeng Li.
The group didn't want to offer any special favors, so the few who knew each other exchanged intense glances.
