For some reason, Xu Changqing wanted to laugh.
'Serves you right!'
'You just had to go!'
'You just had to go behind my back!'
'You must have stormed out in a huff!'
"What are you doing out here?"
'Listen to that fiery tone.' Xu Changqing pressed her lips together to hide a smile. "I was afraid you'd get lost. What's wrong? Did Second Grand-aunt say something to upset you?"
Old Mrs. Xu sighed under her breath and shook her head. "Is your second grand-uncle still chatting with your grandpa?"
'So she doesn't want to talk about it?' Stepping over the threshold into the courtyard beside Old Mrs. Xu, Xu Changqing smiled. "They were just about to leave, but I stopped them."
