Entering the private room, He Jinxuan, who had already ordered the dishes, was trying to placate her: "Yanyan, I really feel wronged."
Xinyan naturally believed him, but she didn't intend to let him off the hook so easily. She was somewhat perplexed; even though he wasn't particularly handsome, he somehow attracted so much attention, which really irked her.
He Jinxuan saw Xinyan down her tea like it was alcohol and quickly poured her another cup: "I do know Mei Xueshan, but only in passing since she always appears, trailing behind Jian Minru.
Whatever she's plotting, I truly don't know. If it weren't for Qu Aiting's indiscretion today, I wouldn't even be aware of this matter."
Xinyan hadn't said a word, which made him truly anxious: "Yanyan, you're not really going to send me to the cold palace because of those people's words, are you?
If you do, you'd be falling for their trap. Quarreling over a few words from others isn't wise."
