Leng Muling was so enchanted by Mo Qi that she really didn't want to miss this opportunity. As she stood up, she earnestly requested, "Your Majesty, as a nobleman's daughter, I am not familiar with the roads within the palace and fear I might take a wrong turn. May I request that this Leader Mo escort me?"
A deep look flashed in Zhilan's eyes, "When Miss Leng leaves the palace, naturally there will be palace staff to guide her. Why the need to specifically request Leader Mo?"
Mo Qi also glanced at her.
But that look was both short and quick, indifferent and devoid of any emotion, as if simply questioned for a moment and then it was over.
Disappointed, and now doubted by Zhilan as well, Leng Muling turned to leave, when Su Yingxue timely said, "Mo Qi, since Miss Leng is visiting the imperial study for the first time, escort her out of the palace. Remember to assist her onto her carriage, and don't neglect the daughter of the Prime Minister's Estate."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
