Gu Tianqing nodded and smiled.
Though Rong Yan looked upset initially, his mood improved after he saw her approving nod and smile.
The incident was actually masterminded by the both of them, Rong Yan and Gu Tianqing. She had hidden something beneath Gu Xijiu's bed and the reason for her nod was to hint him that she had placed the item there, telling him not to worry.
However, Gu Xijiu had noticed all their actions and expressions.
She then left them alone for a little while longer, waiting to see if they could manage a smile later.
"Miss Gu, are you worried?" Gu Xijiu heard someone talking.
She turned around and it was the prince, Rong Che who stood by her side, looking at her with a smile. Since when had he gotten so close to her?! She did not even realize it! The Duke seemed to be quite good at martial arts!
Gu Xijiu intentionally stepped back to keep the distance and coldly said, "What's there to be worried about? I'm fine."
