The private room was silent. Madam Xia's expression changed. She clenched her fists so tightly that her fingers turned pale. Her nails had already pierced through her skin, but she did not notice it.
Qiao Xi was not anxious and quietly looked at her. After a long silence, Madam Xia took a deep breath and choked slightly. "I… I'll support you. As long as you want to do it, I'll support you!"
As soon as she finished speaking and before Qiao Xi could speak, Madam Xia abruptly stood up. "I'm sorry, Miss Qiao. It's getting late. I should go back. They'll definitely look for me when they notice that I'm missing."
She left in a hurry, leaving Gu Zheng and Qiao Xi in the room.
Gu Zheng's expression was still gentle. In front of Qiao Xi, he would always be a noble young master who was as gentle as jade. He thoughtfully poured a cup of coffee for Qiao Xi and looked at her dotingly. "Xi Xi, did you gain anything?"
