章節 500: An illegitimate child

Jingfei withdrew back and looked at Xu Zifan. He blankly stared at her when Jingfei tapped her fingers on the table. "Could you please tell me about your work?" She asked. 

Xu Zifan was so flustered that he was unable to even blink. He did not hear what she said and kept his gaze fixated on her. Jingfei flicked her fingers in front of his eyes, and he came out of that trance. 

"I asked you a question," Jingfei said. 

"A question? Forgive me. I did not hear," Xu Zifan replied. 

"What is your work? Could you please me about it?" She inquired. 

"I am in the treasury department, and I usually look into finance-related work. The policies for the kingdom's people, we put them into the documents and other related stuff," Xu Zifan answered.

"Oh. You have interesting work to do. You are such a talented man. You learned using your left hand well," Jingfei said and brought her hands near her chest by clasping them together. 

He smiled a little.
