She refused decisively. Pei Yuqing did not say anything further, but ordered a servant to bring a chair over, and said, "Don't squat for too long, be careful your legs might go numb."
Xie Wanqing sat down compliantly, tilted her head to look at him, and asked curiously, "Where did you come from?"
"I've been here all along," he pointed to the depths of the greenhouse, "it's just that you hadn't noticed."
Xie Wanqing: "..."
When she came, she suspected that Pei Yuxuan might have given her this direction for a reason, and it turned out she was right.
Amused, she said, "Did you ask Sister Xuan to specially lead me here?"
Beside her, the peonies were in full bloom, their beauty radiant and stunning, yet such a view paled in comparison for Pei Yuqing with her slight smile as she tilted her head towards him.
The gaze upon her face stirred slightly. Xie Wanqing sensed something was amiss, paused briefly, and just as she was about to speak, she heard the man before her say, "No."
