Chapter 666 The Man She Had Been Missing
When Ziyue came down the stage, she saw Jingshu and Xia.
She took Zixi from a servant and walked to the two. "I have to trouble you to take care of Zixi. I don't trust anyone else."
As the host, it was only natural for her to deal with these people. It wasn't convenient to bring Zixi with her.
Without Muchen in the country, she had to be careful.
"Alright." Xia immediately nodded.
Ziyue responded with a smile. She took a glass of red wine from a waiter's tray before turning to leave.
She strolled, and her graceful figure was beautiful. She had the nobility of a lady from an aristocratic family.
Xia stared at her for a while before coming to her senses. She turned and saw Jingshu picking Zixi up and putting him on a chair.
After that, he sat down opposite Zixi and fed him fruits.
Xia used her elbow to nudge him and muttered softly, "Don't you think that Ziyue is more elegant after returning from Country J?"
Jingshu raised his eyes and glanced at her. He stuffed a piece of fruit into his mouth and said slowly, "Isn't this natural…"
He suddenly paused and lifted his head to look at Xia. He sized her up and gestured at her.
Xia walked over in confusion. "What?"
When she leaned closer, Jingshu put one hand on her shoulder and said half-jokingly, "Although you have half her good looks, your elegance can be groomed if you marry someone with a good family background."
Xia put on a fake smile. "Good family background?"
Jingshu nodded and coughed dryly. "For example, like me."
"Heh." Xia rolled her eyes at him before turning to leave. "I'm going to the washroom."
Jingshu called out behind her. "Hey!"
Xia walked away faster. She reached out to touch her face. It was burning.
Who would flatter themselves like this?
Marry Jingshu? She really had never thought about it.
But she had no expectations because she understood the wide gap between them. She didn't dare think about it for the time being.
Jingshu's family had been involved in politics for the past few generations. Marrying into such a strict family was more complicated than marrying into a wealthy family.
They could only take it one step at a time.
Xia walked into the washroom. She turned on the tap and splashed cold water on her face.
When she raised her head again, she realized her makeup was messed up. She could only take her compact powder from her bag to fix her makeup.
Just as she took her compact powder out, she saw another person's face in the mirror.
She suddenly widened her eyes and turned to look at the person before her in disbelief. "You…"
…
"You have great skin, Mrs. Qin. You don't look like someone who has given birth. You're like a young girl."
"That's right. How do you usually maintain your good looks, Mrs. Qin…"
Ziyue was dumbstruck.
When women flattered other women, they naturally started with attire and appearances.
After making a round of greetings, Ziyue was tired of hearing such words.
What do they mean, like a young girl?
I'm not even twenty-five years old. Am I not still a young girl?
