"Thankfully, no one saw me..."
The lone and aloof Hu Ma glanced at the bustling entrance of the manor and couldn't help but clear his throat as he turned away and went back.
Thankfully, no one saw him.
He hadn't paid attention in a while, but was the yellow-haired girl so popular in the manor?
He vaguely remembered Zhou Datong mentioning that after she was rescued by him, she temporarily found shelter, helping out at the small tavern in the town.
To put it bluntly, it was just a place for her to stay for now. Technically, the tavern wasn't hiring; it was run by a couple who could manage on their own. But Xiang was kept on because she was diligent, obedient, and could read and do the accounts.
Now, everyone around was familiar with her and called her Xiang.
