The moment she finished speaking, the Gray Wolf Butler visibly stiffened.
Yi Nuo pressed his lips together, glancing at the person beside him.
Lin Xiyue frantically shook her head, raising both hands to proclaim her innocence. "It wasn't me! I didn't say a single word!"
Yi Nuo's heart skipped a beat. He turned to see an 'I knew it' expression appear on his lady's face.
Jiang Qingli raised an eyebrow. "So it really was him."
She'd only had a vague suspicion. She hadn't expected to trick the truth out of them so easily.
Lin Xiyue, realizing what had happened, shrugged at Yi Nuo. "You can't blame me for this. Your lady figured it out herself." Then, she pressed her palms together, pleading with Jiang Qingli. "Sweetie, please don't be mad at me. I was just worried you'd get angry..."
"I'll deal with you later." Jiang Qingli flicked her friend's forehead. "Why don't you go play for a bit? I want to talk to Yi Nuo about... some things."
