The sound of the footsteps gradually faded away, until they could not be heard anymore.Heng Yuqing took a deep breath and looked at the peach blossoms. She could not see clearly from where she was. It was not far away, but she could only hear the sound of voices, but could not see the person. "This maid sounds fierce. How could Childe Yueming hire such a fierce maid?"Feng Lian?Ning Xueyan touched a peach branch gently. The rough bark pricked her hand, and the corners of her mouth quivered slightly.

"If it had been only a few years ago, you might have had a chance to meet Sister Ziying. But now, what's the point of talking about this?" Ning Xueyan sighed."A beautiful girl often has an unfortunate life. Fifth Young Lady, you're wrong if you say that I did not have a chance to meet Young Lady Ziying. Look at what this is."Wen Xueran stood up with a smile. With a bang, he folded the fan in his hand. Then he put it on the table next to him, turned around, and took a scroll from the young male servant. The scroll was not big, but it was much smaller than an ordinary one, at a glance.
