"Can I leave now?" Xie Lingqin didn't answer the question, but asked one instead, her expression cold and neither humble nor arrogant.
A hint of surprise seemed to flash across Yu Qingyi's smiling eyes, and then she chuckled, "It seems that not only does the Second Miss of the General's Mansion not match the rumors, but the Eldest Miss is also truly extraordinary."
Xie Lingqin wasn't surprised that the man recognized her. He must have found out about her before he saved her, so she wasn't hostile. Instead, she told him everything: "I've been missing for two days. Based on my understanding of my father, it shouldn't have spread yet. An hour ago, I injured Xie Lingyu. Although she won't suspect it was me in that outfit, if I can appear at the General's Mansion now and come up with an explanation, I can be a little safer."
After Xie Lingqin finished speaking, she stared intently at the man a few steps away.
Yes, she was gambling. With her strength, it was impossible for her to return to the general's mansion quietly.
Right now, she has no leverage, except for that one secret...
However, the man in front of her just stared at her, resting his chin on his hand without saying a word.
Xie Lingqin wasn't in a hurry and let him look her over.
Xie Lingqin then noticed that the man in front of her had a slight change in his eyes, and seemed to glance out the window out of the corner of his eye.
"I will send you back quietly." Then, Yu Qingyi nodded, glanced at Xie Lingqin from head to toe, and turned to leave the room.
Such a straightforward and undemanding approach... made Xie Lingqin slightly uneasy.
---Aside---
Girls, if you like it, don't forget to save it! Mwah!
