He shook his head and continued with a light-hearted laugh, following someone’s airy style:
"Let’s go, let’s go. We’ll take you to Ziyu’s East Fence Small House. Oh, what a coincidence today! Not only has Ziyu’s friend come, but my lady too. It’s perfect, haha, Teng Ying, don’t you think? After we take them back, they can get acquainted..."
Fan Yushu smiled at Jia Tengying who was about to respond but, in the next second, Su Xiaoxiao, who initially had a somewhat wary look, suddenly beamed with joy.
Holding the sachet, the little Fox Demon chirped happily, "Master Fan, although your gaze isn’t quite sincere, you certainly have a way with words, and you’re not bad either. I misunderstood you before."
Fan Yushu was taken aback and blurted out, "Ah?"
Su Xiaoxiao, holding ’Ziyu’s friend’ Lu Wan’s hand, gestured and chuckled, "Has Zhao Rong told you everything? Hmm, I’m not yet his wife, I... we have just made a promise, but I believe I’ll soon be his wife, so Master Fan, it’s not wrong of you to call me that."
The atmosphere among the four turned deathly silent.
The two scholars exchanged glances.
Su Xiaoxiao, widening her bewitching foxy eyes, announced her title, intending to scare them... well, she was actually just bolstering her own courage.
But little did Su Xiaoxiao know that even when she angrily tried to intimidate, it was another kind of captivating charm.
Not only did she not scare anyone, but she actually amused everyone, just like Zhao Rong did initially... Su Dahuang?
Thinking of how Ziyu would act, Fan Yushu immediately averted his gaze, practicing ’look but don’t see.’
Though wildflowers are fragrant, the flower at home already belongs to someone else. Considering how Ziyu would have behaved, he would be utterly proper, never overstepping bounds.
Feeling increasingly sentimental about his good friend, Fan Yushu coughed and patted the wooden shoulder beside him, then chuckled:
"So you are friends of Ziyu. Let me introduce myself, I’m Fan Yushu, ’Yushu’ as in ’standing tall and graceful like jade,’ a close friend of Ziyu. This is Jia Tengying, Teng... Ying... well, let him introduce himself, um, Jia Tengying is Ziyu’s roommate."
