Shi Nian then smiled, tilting her head to look at Huangfu Huazhang: "Mr. Huangfu, it's understandable if you couldn't see it. After all, who would when the lighting is so dim tonight? And it's your first time here, so it's possible to make a mistake."
These words held a hint of sharpness, prompting Huangfu Huazhang to squint as he looked at Shi Nian. Yet he said nothing, merely smiled faintly and shrugged lightly.
But it was precisely this lenience that made Xiang Yuan's expression turn even worse.
Xiang Yuan's fingers clutched tightly onto Shi Nian's wrist, her fingertips digging in almost to the bone. Shi Nian felt a bit of pain.
Even though last time Huangfu Huazhang witnessed their quarrel and took her away... if it was just because of that, it seemed unnecessary for Xiang Yuan to be this tense in front of Huangfu Huazhang, right?
