Chương 91: Protecting

Deciding to change the topic, Li Xueyue asked, "Where did Yu Zhen go?"

"Oh, that's a good question. I lost track of him," Li Chenyang said, looking around in confusion. "Maybe he went home on his own?"

Li Xueyue examined their surroundings and noticed the majority of the guests had already left. Only a few lingered behind to have a final word with Marquis Ning who stood by the door and Ning Huabing who was bidding everyone goodbye. The large garden was quite empty, and Yu Zhen was nowhere in sight.

Li Xueyue wasn't sure if she wanted him to see her in this state. "He came with us, do you think he'd have a carriage to take him to wherever he's staying?" She didn't mean to sound so worried about him, but it just came out like that.

Li Chenyang laughed a bit and pinched her cheek.

"Try to not show you're so worried about a man. They'll like you more if you do," he teased her while placing a hand on her upper back to guide her towards the front entrance.
