Song Xiaoyue leaned into Lady Song's arms, staring blankly at Ye Ge as he methodically went about his work. She was struck by his tall physique, commanding presence and restrained yet evident power.
It wasn't until now that Lady Song noticed the look in her daughter's eyes. She waved her hand in front of Song Xiaoyue, but her daughter absentmindedly pushed it away, seemingly annoyed.
It wasn't until Ye Ge's tall figure disappeared from sight that Song Xiaoyue came back to her senses.
A mother knows her daughter best, and from Song Xiaoyue's state, Lady Song knew what was on her mind.
Lady Song might have acted like a maiden when pampered, but she was a mother to her daughter. She patted Song Xiaoyue's shoulder, "Xiaoyue, what are you thinking about? You seem lost."
Song Xiaoyue glanced at Lady Song. She was no longer "weak in the knees", but a shy look crossed her face: "Mother, you know I met Guard Xia twice before, but I never realized he was... so remarkable."
