Having been carried all the way by him, Qi Yu felt she could no longer show her face.
Once in the front hall, Li Mingjue finally set her down.
Qi Yu promptly chose the seat farthest away from him and sat down, her eyes warily watching him as if afraid he would do something to mortify her even further.
Seeing her act as if she couldn't stay away from him fast enough, Li Mingjue slightly raised an eyebrow and said, "Just now at the hostel, I met Princess Lingya, and she said to me…"
He deliberately paused just as he reached the critical point of his story.
Seeing him not continuing, Qi Yu, unable to contain her curiosity, glared at him with moist eyes.
Who just stops talking halfway through!
Li Mingjue chuckled softly, beckoned her with a crooked finger, and coaxed her in a playful tone, "Come here, and I will tell you."
Qi Yu felt increasingly like prey under someone's watch, yet she frustratingly fell for it anyway.
