When the Eldest Miss of the Gu Clan received the news and hurried to find her Brother Xiao Yan, she found him laughing and chatting with that pink-haired woman.
At that moment, the backdrop behind the Eldest Miss of the Gu Clan might as well have been struck by lightning, her portrait turning black and white before being torn in half.
She knew that pink-haired woman's visit could mean nothing good!
The moment she heard the woman had come to the Xiao Household to see her Brother Xiao Yan, she'd had a bad feeling.

Xiao Yan smiled as he watched the Eldest Miss of the Gu Clan walk gracefully toward him.
After chatting with Nalan Yanran for a while, his mood had improved considerably. He was no longer as downcast as he had been earlier.

She wasn't that foolish!
"Hahaha, that's thoughtful of you, Xun'er. I'm all right now. It's not the first time this has happened, after all. I'll pull myself together!"
