Upon seeing Qin Liuxi and the others appear, Xiong Er almost thought he was hallucinating, even rubbing his eyes. But it wasn't an illusion; they were even waving at him.
Xiong Er looked towards Jing Xiaosi and said before the other person had an outburst, "Xiao Si, they arrived earlier."
Meaning that they didn't follow them; they had gotten there first.
Jing Xiaosi gave him an annoyed glare, and although his gaze still held some wariness toward Qin Liuxi and the others, it was also mixed with a bit of embarrassment. He had always thought that the other party was well-prepared.
But now, it truly seemed to be a coincidence?
Wuyang looked at them with surprise, "You all know each other?"
"On the way here, we hitched a ride in their carriage for part of the journey," Qin Liuxi explained with a light smile.
