Li Qiao's eyebrows lifted, and she shot a sidelong glance at Shang Yu beside her.

Following him was Xia Siyu, stealing glances at his profile now and then.
In the nearby smoking area of the mansion, Xi Luo watched this scene and clicked her tongue, "The man is heartless, but the lady is infatuated."
Luoyu and Gu Chenn turned their heads at the same time, their movements strikingly synchronized.
