"I wonder which big shot showed up today. Lingling is usually so smooth, but this time she's really messed with the wrong person."
"She's been making quite a scene all over the city lately. I bet her patron's official wife came to teach her a lesson."
The two whispered to each other. As soon as they came upstairs, they saw two figures locked in an embrace.
They chuckled teasingly. "My, my, can't wait to get your hands on each other. What pair of secret lovers are you?"
When the two got a clear look at the man's refined and handsome features, they couldn't help but gasp.
"This young master is gorgeous! Is that one of our girls he's holding? Who could be so lucky?"
"Doesn't look like it from her clothes. None of the girls in our house dress so plainly."
As they spoke, they started to walk closer for a better look.
Ji Qingwu's ears burned with embarrassment. She saw that the Emperor wasn't moving, his arm still firmly around her waist, but she didn't feel offended.
