Qin Gui dusted the fish food residue off her hands and replied with a smile, “No.”

Qin Sheng was rendered speechless.

Qin Sheng held her anger down in her stomach. She could neither spit it out nor could she swallow it down. She didn’t want to lose her temper in front of so many people. She found Qin Gui very annoying.

Qin Sheng looked at her angrily and asked again, “Are you coming?”

“No…” As Qin Gui replied leisurely, she inadvertently glanced towards the left front, where she saw several figures coming from the direction of the tea house.

Seven to eight luxuriously dressed scions were approaching here. All of them were handsome and extraordinary.

Originally, Qin Gui had casually taken a glance but she caught sight of two familiar figures among the few scions walking in the front. One was the second prince, Gu Jing, and the one walking in the middle was Xiao Ze!

Qin Gui’s eyes widened in shock.

That’s indeed Xiao Ze!

He was luxuriously dressed and had his hair tied with a purple gold crown. He looked extremely handsome and had a calm air around him. A faint smile could be found hanging on his lips. He walked in a slow gait and carried his hands behind his back. His leisure walk was filled with grace and elegance.

Qin Gui’s entire body screamed bad premonition, looking at his gentle and extremely deceptive handsome face.

She promptly stood up and agreed to Qin Shen with a smile, “Okay.”

It was not Qin Sheng’s turn to be astounded.

She still thought that she would be rejected by Qin Gui again! This Qin Gui just can’t decide what she wants. Is there something wrong with her brain?

Before she could recover her wits, Qin Gui was already urging her eagerly, “Are you coming?”

Qin Sheng was afraid that she would come to regret it again. She hurriedly agreed, “I’m coming!”

Just as the two sisters stepped out of the pavilion, someone faintly cried behind them, “Look, it’s His Royal Highness, the second prince…”

Qin Sheng halted her footsteps, wanting to turn her head but Qin Gui urged her, “Hurry up!”

Having said this, Qin Gui quickened her pace and left Qin Sheng behind.

Qin Sheng was left speechless.

Qin Sheng had no choice but to chase after her immediately.

Opposite to the pond was a two-story water pavilion, where seven to eight ladies were standing around Qin Xin.

Qin Xin, who was standing before a large red-lacquered desk, just withdrew the goat-haired brush and put it on the brush holder.

A portrait of Queen Mother of the West was lying on the table. The Queen Mother of the West was wearing a Five Phoenix Crown and long eyebrows and exquisite eyes. She looked elegant, dignified and other-worldly.

The few ladies gathered around to comment on the painting.

“Sister Xin’s painting is really good. The Queen Mother looks elegant and dignified. And also amiable and respectful.”

“That’s right! A compassionate feeling for all mankind is coming out of her!”

“Sister Xin’s painting skills have improved again!”

“…”

Everyone was singing praises of her.

“Third Sister.” Qin Xin seemed to have noticed Qin Gui approaching at this time. She raised her head and said with a smile, “I was just looking for you. Why don’t you join us?”

Qin Gui smiled but remained noncommittal.

Qin Sheng, on the other hand, said impatiently, “Second Sister, the second prince is here.”

Qin Sheng glared at Qin Gui when she spoke of this. She blamed Qin Gui for running too fast, otherwise she would have led the second prince here.

Qin Xin’s eyes immediately lit up.

She hadn’t seen him for a long time since the second prince was grounded by the emperor in the Jianglin Palace.

Be that as it may, she calmly glanced at Qin Gui with a deep gaze and no change in her expression.

At present, she couldn’t wait to see Gu Jing now.
