This was Ming Jing, Ran Tengxiao's "Red" referred to by Zhao Qin, who had recently become famous throughout the country.
Her appearance was indeed as acclaimed.
Beyond the disdain in Ran Qing's eyes was another woman trying to get close to Ran Tengxiao. She'd seen many like that before.
"You all may leave. I need to speak privately with Xiao."
Zhao Qin swiftly left to find Xi Yu.
Ming Jing gracefully rose, the hem of her skirt remained undisturbed as she walked, every step perfect.
When she passed Ran Qing, she smiled whereas Ran Qing gave her a cold face. Ming Jing wasn't annoyed though, her face still maintained a gentle smile, leisurely leaving.
Ye Jian followed Ming Jing out.
Once their silhouette disappeared from the doorway, Ran Qing asked unhappily, "Why is she here?"
Ran Tengxiao frowned; "We are friends."
"Friends? Someone like her? Don't be naive. She is targeting you for your status. Play around if you want, but don't get too serious. You're engaged."
