"Grandmother, are you well?" Su Miao greeted her politely.
"Come here. I heard you weren't feeling well. How are you now?"
"It's much better now." With that, Su Miao smiled and walked to Grandma Shen's side.
She had just sat down when a tall, slender figure slowly walked over.
Shen Changji was still wearing his official robes, his brows and eyes were cold, and his expression was calm.
His scarlet outfit made him stand out, exuding an air of noble authority and majesty.
Su Miao looked at Shen Changji's smug and pretentious demeanor and couldn't help but rub her wrist...
"Grandson greets grandmother."
His indifferent voice rang out.
As he bowed slightly in greeting, those around him noticed a red mark on his neck.
When Liu Jiaojiao saw it, her palms were sweaty, and she couldn't help but clutch the handkerchief in her hand.
Grandma Shen couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly, "Ziji, Jiaojiao is not yet married, you need to restrain yourself."

But Liu Jiaojiao knew in her heart that the red mark was not left by her!

Grandma Shen insisted that Shen Changji take Liu Jiaojiao back, but Liu Jiaojiao heard Cui'er say that Wei Yuan had prepared the portrait.
Liu Jiaojiao was just about to come up with an excuse when Shen Changji said he had something to do and was afraid he couldn't see her off.
Liu Jiaojiao didn't insist. She pretended to be regretful and upset, made a few perfunctory remarks, and got into the carriage.
The place she had arranged to meet with Wei was not far away, and when she arrived, Wei was already waiting for her.
When she opened the painting in her hand, her expression froze.
...
Meanwhile, Su Miao was going back to her own courtyard to get something.
Unexpectedly, just as she was about to leave, she was blocked by a tall, imposing figure.
