Chi Yue looked at him.
Slowly, a smile pure to the point of being almost naive spread across her face.
"You may dispense with the formalities. My surname is Chi. May I know what advice Mr. Qiao has for me?"
Qiao Dongyang's face was set in severity. The lecture he had prepared could not be released in the face of that smile. He choked for a moment, his brow furrowing.
"Is the surname Chi something to be proud of? It's quite rare; I hadn't heard of it before you."
Huh? Has the topic strayed?
Chi Yue adjusted her scarf and lazily shoved her hands into her pockets, "The surname Chi isn't that remarkable, it just happens to rank higher than yours."
Qiao Dongyang: "?"
Chi Yue's lips lifted into a smile, "'The Hundred Surnames' list, Chi precedes Qiao in the order. I'm sorry, Mr. Qiao, our ancestors have offended you."
Not only did it stand before her own, it was right next to it indeed.
