That evening after Qi Yue left, she returned to her room and reflected at length on the various changes that had occurred throughout the day, leaving her with immensely complex feelings.
Now she was certain that Zhao Xiyan had feelings for her.
But, when did these feelings start? Was it more gratitude or more affection? She could not be sure.
And Zhao Xiyan hadn't mentioned anything about Lady Bai Shao, probably hoping for the bliss of having both.
Competing with other women for the same man in the back of the house?
She would never accept such a situation.
She had a hot temper, and it wouldn't be surprising if she ended up killing Lady Bai Shao in a fit of rage.
And presumably, Zhao Xiyan would despise her for being intolerant, jealous, and cruel.
At that point, it would be likely that the two of them could only become enemies.
It was not without reason that Qi Yue had these thoughts.
