"Grandmadam..." Yue Youxi muttered these four words, perhaps thinking of something amusing, as a smile appeared at the corner of his lips, "It's surprising that you look so young yet hold such a high status!"
What he didn't say was how well Mu Qiuniang had hidden her identity. He had discovered she was supposed to be an orphan, never imagining that she was actually a senior figure in the Mu family. If he hadn't met her in person, would he ever have known this secret?
"In this world, many things are surprising!" Out of politeness, Mu Qiuniang responded.
And this statement seemed to encourage Yue Youxi, as the smile on his face deepened: "Yes, just like fate led me to meet you!"
Mu Qiuniang realized something and looked at him in surprise.
She was no longer the girl who was completely ignorant of love back in the day. After dealing with Jiang Nuo's boldness, she was now able to respond to such straightforward expressions of affection.
