Luo Huiniang shook her head and said, "Even though he's fallen on hard times, he still carries a certain air about him... We used to think that was just his fierceness, but now it seems more like a natural aura, which shows his high-born background."
Luo Huiniang paused, listening closely to the sounds outside. Once the footsteps faded away, she continued, "Marriage has always considered family status. Since he is from a high-class family, it is only right for him to marry a noble lady. Xiao Yu, don't say such things about him. If we talk about who is worthy, I am the one who is unworthy."
Gu Jinli was shocked. She knew Luo Huiniang had feelings for Qin Er Lang, but she had never realized her love was so humble.
Feeling both sympathy and frustration, Gu Jinli said, "Hui Niang, you don't owe him anything. You shouldn't see yourself so lowly."
Luo Huiniang shook her head, "No, I owe him my life. It was he who saved me. If not for him, I would have been dead by now."
