Only then did Lang Ru realise that Yu Mai was holding himself back because of her. She turned to look at Yu Mai whose expression was awkward as if a cat was caught stealing cream, seeing this, Lang Ru wished to slap herself in the face.
Her daddy told her that she needed to be polite and make sure that the mer she was vowing would get everything that he liked but here she was becoming the biggest obstacle in letting Yu Mai have his fun. Thus, she smiled and then said with a jolly voice, " Who told you that scholars cannot play in the mud? I came from the countryside and thus it is all right for me to play around."
Lang Ru was of course lying, scholars were supposed to be dignified all the time but for the sake of impressing Yu Mai for their happy future, she was willing to go all out!
