Xiao Rufeng knew that she would eventually leave the Yan Mansion, but neither she nor Yan Xiuchen spoke about it that day. They spent the rest of the day doing their own tasks at work until the working hours ended.
When she tidied up her small desk, she found Yan Xiuchen standing in front of her with a slight flush on his face. It made his scar more prominent in her gaze, but it didn't bother her at all. After their intimate conversation during lunch, she felt that she could be more at ease in his company.
"What is it?" She asked. She wondered if these feelings she had for him were nothing but platonic and couldn't turn into a romantic one.

"We dine together every day since I came here." She pointed out, and she could see a hint of disappointment crossing his face, "but if tonight's a special one, does it mean I need to dress up?"
