章 1988: He Couldn’t Say It

"Oh, I have nothing to do, so I'm here to have a look." Nalan Ziyan said while looking at Leng Shuang. He emboldened himself to speak out. "Young Miss Leng Shuang, are you busy today? I'd like to invite you to have a cup of tea. Do you have time?"

"I'm sorry, I'm very busy. Please excuse me." Leng Shuang answered while turning around to leave.

Nalan Ziyan stood there awkwardly, then looked at Leng Hua. "Well, I'd better go back first."

"I'll send Young Master Nalan off." Leng Hua smiled gently and sent him to the door. But, Nalan Ziyan stood at the gate motionless as if he was about to say something but then stopped. "Young Master Nalan, do you still have other business?"

"Leng Hua, what kind of things does your sister like?" Nalan Ziyan asked. He had never done anything to please a woman before. He thought of giving her jewellery, jade and the like, but he didn't think she would like those things.
