Princess Nalan knit her brows but before she could continue to question her, Lei Xing spotted Li Ru enter her palace and immediately waved her over with a smile, "Li Ru, over here..."
Li Ru walked over and glanced at Princess Nalan and Lei Xing quickly introduced them, "Princess Nalan, this is Li Ru, Noble consort Li...Li Ru, Princess Nalan." The two lighty bowed to each other and Lei Xing quickly said, "Sit, sit...." Xiao Ruo arrived right on time with snacks and tea and Lei Xing went, "Eat, drink..."
{...Just don't ask me shit -_-)...}
Princess Nalan's expression still looked off, and Li Ru also looked weird, probably uncomfortable with the extra guest. And so Lei Xing quickly leaped to the task of playing the gracious host and tried to rile up the conversation. Before long, she successfully distracted Princess Nalan and even got Li Ru's interest by starting a conversation about the various landscapes and scenery in Zou kingdom.
