"Have you had dinner?" Song Baiyan asked her.
Tang Li was taken aback and then answered honestly, "There were pressing matters, so I came straight here. As for dinner... I'm not hungry yet."
"Since you're already in, there's no rush for the matter; let's have dinner first."
With that, Song Baiyan took her hand, "It happens to be mealtime. We can talk after we've eaten."
Tang Li hadn't yet responded when she was led inside.
The long corridor was deserted.
Therefore, even if His Excellency is holding a girl's hand, it will not attract sideways glances or objections.
In the dining room, only Aunt Min was setting a pair of clean utensils.
Upon seeing the master bringing Miss Tang back, Aunt Min informed them, "The old lady has had her dinner and has already gone to the living quarter."
After speaking, Aunt Min helped serve Tang Li a bowl of rice.
Tang Li received it with a thank you.
Aunt Min smiled, then left the dining room.
Ji Ming also withdrew.
