Yun Ran suddenly stopped, turned to look at Yu Qingyan, and affectionately called, "Qingqing~"
The gentle call was lodious and naturally intimate, even tinged with a trace of tender affection. It was so sudden!
Yu Qingyan was completely stunned, taking a mont to realize Yun Ran was calling her, her expression slightly odd.
"Miss Lin, did you call ?"
Yun Ran carefully observed her expression, capturing all her reactions, feeling she didn’t quite fit the Ghost King’s description of ’Qingqing’.
"Miss Lin, is there sothing you want to say to ?"
Yu Qingyan regained her usual graceful delicateness, her gaze shimring as she looked at Yun Ran.
Yun Ran remained composed and at ease, speaking boldly, "Nothing much, just suddenly thought the na sounds nice. It really matches your fresh and refined aura. Hasn’t anyone called you that before?"
Yu Qingyan subconsciously glanced at Shen Mubai beside her, modestly demurring a few words, and complinting Yun Ran in return, but inwardly puzzled:
What is she up to? What is her purpose? Is she intentionally being kind to in front of Mr. Shen? Does she want Mr. Shen to rember her more fondly?
Indeed, Shen Mubai had not taken his eyes off her since Yun Ran appeared.
He was born with straight eyebrows and bright eyes, supposed to be bold and flamboyant, yet his gaze was so complex, seemingly hiding a thousand words without knowing how to begin.
Yun Ran glanced at him coolly, "What are you looking at?"
Shen Mubai nervously clenched his fist, asked cautiously, "Wanyue, where have you been these days? When you suddenly left Qishan without a word, did sothing happen?"
"What’s it to you?"
"I..."
Shen Mubai found himself speechless for a mont, standing awkwardly, unsure of what to say. It was Yu Qingyan who hurriedly explained, speaking softly to Yun Ran:
"Miss Lin, you might have misunderstood Mr. Shen. These days he has been worried about your safety, unable to eat or sleep well, and searching everywhere for your whereabouts."
"Today is my birthday, and mother kept asking Mr. Shen to accompany shopping for so powders and jewelry, out of filial respect he couldn’t go against mother’s wishes, and so...
In the end, Yu Qingyan gazed earnestly at Yun Ran and said, "So Miss Lin, please don’t misunderstand Mr. Shen. He is really, really worried about you!"
Yun Ran silently rolled her eyes inwardly, is she boasting about how much she pleases Mrs. Shen?
Indeed, in Lin Wanyue’s mories, Mrs. Shen truly didn’t favor her, always cold-faced when seeing her, as if Lin Wanyue owed her eight million taels of silver.
If Lin Wanyue were still here, she would surely be very sad to hear those words, right?
Heh... seeing her adorable and ek appearance, she’s definitely not a good person!
"Oh, it’s your birthday today? Here, this is for you!"
With that, Yun Ran handed her a beautifully wrapped oil-paper package. Yu Qingyan took it with so suspicion, "This is..."
"It’s a top-quality flower cake! With white lotus paste, freshly baked, still warm!"
"Miss Lin, you..."
"Don’t worry, it’s not poisoned."
"..."
...
When Yun Ran returned to Prince Qin Mansion, it was already lamp-lighting ti.
Just as she reached the mansion’s gate, a figure ca running towards her.
"Sister Princess, you’re finally back!"
