"Having made the acquaintance of Miss Tao, I naturally have to prepare a congratulatory gift, I was too abrupt, please excuse me as I take my leave now,"
Top Scholar Song said as he rose to leave.
Miss Tao's father, wearing a puzzled look, watched as Top Scholar Song left as quickly as he had come, "Staying for a drink would have been nice."
Upon leaving, Top Scholar Song glanced back at the Tao Residence, struck by how in just a few days, Tao Minmin's engagement had been announced.
No wonder she did not meet him the day before; she probably wished to avoid any misunderstandings.
Ji Yun asked with confusion, "Master, are you planning to go back now?"
"I'm going to select a congratulatory gift," replied Top Scholar Song.
At that moment, the Chen family's envoy arrived with the betrothal gifts.
From a distance, Top Scholar Song recognised which Chen family it was.
Watching them enter the Tao Residence, he retracted his gaze and boarded the horse carriage.
