Xie Zhinuan was stunned.
Send someone to the capital?
It was like a child making a mistake outside and being sent back home by others, to face a beating from the adults.
After all, the adults needed to save face.
"That girl..." Xie Zhinuan hesitated slightly, then corrected herself, "Actually, you didn't have to do that!"
But the feeling of being protected was still very pleasant, very comforting, and somewhat joyful.
Li Hengyi didn't speak, but handed the basket to Xie Zhinuan.
"..."
Xie Zhinuan paused.
She was expected to cook dinner.
Since things turned out better than she had anticipated, she really would go cook.
She took the basket and headed to the kitchen.
Li Hengyi followed behind her.
"?" Xie Zhinuan turned and looked at Li Hengyi.
