Jing Yan’s face turned extremely sullen. Watching them walking away, Jing Yan found it hard to choke down her anger. She clearly saw the snake, why it disappeared in an instant!?

It must be Jing Yue’s trick!”

As soon as Jing Yue cheerfully left the stage, she saw the carriage of Xiao Chen, which was just waiting in the distance, surrounded by people in heated discussion. Jing Yue sighed and turned to look at Shangguan Linglan and Ning Xiangyuan.

“All right, we know your Ninth Imperial Uncle has come to pick you up.” Shangguan Linglan and Ning Xiangyuan also saw Xiao Chen’s carriage. Thus, Shangguan Linglan waved her hand after putting on an envious look, “Go ahead, quickly!”

“How nice of you two!” Jing Yue jovially hugged them, “I’ll buy you lunch in Delectable Delicacies Chamber tomorrow!”

“Oh, you want to please us?” Shangguan Linglan said with a smile, “I’ll eat you out of house and home.”

“I can’t wait for that!” Jing Yue smiled and said goodbye to Shangguan Linglan and Ning Xiangyuan. Then she turned away and joyfully jumped on Xiao Chen’s carriage. Ning Xiangyuan followed Jing Yue’s disappearing figure and glimpsed a man’s side face from the lifted curtain of the carriage.
