Chapter 462: He Erlang Grows Up (1) (1/2)

Pan Nianzhen couldn’t really be blamed for her mistake.

She had never met her second and third cousins, He Changjue and He Changdi, before. From what she had found out since arriving at the Jing’an Estate, she only knew that Third Cousin was very good-looking and she knew even less about Second Cousin.

He Changjue rarely stayed in the estate and his whereabouts were usually unknown. Plenty of servants in the estate wouldn’t be able to recognise their Second Young Master, let alone Pan Nianzhen.

She knew that Third Cousin, Third Cousin-in-law, and Second Cousin were all coming to Qingxi Hall for the reunion dinner. Third Cousin would certainly be arriving with his wife, so the person coming in right now couldn’t be Third Cousin, as he was alone.

It wasn’t strange that she made a mistake at first glance.

He Changdi’s five senses were acute. As soon as Pan Nianzhen had shyly called out ‘Second Cousin,’ he had instantly swept his icy gaze over.

That one look made her cold to the bone, as if she had been splashed by a basin of water during the coldest day of the winter. He Changdi’s glance caused Pan Nianzhen’s whole body to freeze up. The blush on her face was especially laughable now.

He Changdi didn’t correct Pan Nianzhen immediately. His brows wrinkled into a slight frown and he turned to look behind him. He stopped right at the entrance, as if he was waiting for someone.

Chu Lian’s face was flushed as she ran over holding up the hem of her dress. She lifted her head and smiled apologetically at He Changdi. Her big, watery eyes gave He Sanlang the irresistable urge to touch her face.

He Changdi gathered the hands he had clasped together behind his back. He waited until Chu Lian reached the doorstep before extending his hand to help her slowly cross the step.

Chu Lian huffed a little as she caught her breath. She secretly vowed in her heart that she would never wear this dress again.

Although it looked good, it was too troublesome to walk in. It had been so tiring to walk the short distance from Songtao Court to Qingxi Hall. Moreover, He Sanlang laughed at her a few times along the way.
