Under the gaze of everyone present, Xu Yuan could feel a tightening from the arm that Lin Qingque was holding, followed by a soft pressure that was gradually increasing in strength.
Clearly, Lin Qingque was also feeling the pressure from Jing Lixue.
"Princess Luoyang, do we know each other?"
Xu Yuan responded with composure, his face reflecting the perfect amount of bewilderment.
As soon as he uttered these words, the twin maids standing by Jing Lixue's side instantly changed their expressions.

Jing Lixue, upon hearing his address, didn't get angry; instead, her pupils slowly began to reveal a smile.
She knew he was doing it on purpose.
After all, he didn't yet know that she had already found out everything and wanted to lower her good opinion of him.
