When she came back down, she didn't head to the main hall directly. Instead, she turned towards the restroom to wash her face and calm down.
The moment she entered the main hall, she saw Lu Jinnian's back. Amid the cold winter season, all he had on was a thin shirt, but even then he appeared elegant, as though unaffected by the cold.
Qiao Anhao clenched onto her shirt and took a deep breath. "Lu Jinnian."
He turned his head instantly, his face clear off any anxiety, as though nothing had happened. There was a glimmer of joy in his eyes while his temples remained soft. Gently, he asked, "What took you so long?"
He was a man that was caught in a woman's room, how could he act so nonchalantly? Or was it that he didn't mind being caught?
Lu Jinnian's bright spirits seemed to increase her uneasiness.
Only when he held her hand did she finally snap out of her thoughts. She turned to gaze at him, at his usual impassive face that seemed to have a hint of joy.
