Wang Zhong and Ludmila spent a joyful picnic afternoon on their own estate.
When they returned in front of the stables, Wang Zhong astutely noticed the maids' attitudes toward him seemed to have changed.
When they had first entered the estate, all the maids had been guarded and hostile, but now the older maids looked at Wang Zhong with some confusion, while the younger ones did not hide their curiosity.
What's going on?
The maids were busy setting up the venue for tonight's ball in the garden, so there were maids everywhere. Wherever Wang Zhong went, he felt people talking about him behind his back. Turning around, he saw the maids arranging the venue in an orderly manner, not even speaking.
It felt like a classic "mermaid" moment.
Wang Zhong was curious, so he turned his head and asked Ludmila, "What's going on?"
Ludmila shrugged, "Maybe something happened while you were napping on my lap at noon?"
