Bai Xiaotang finished bowing and when she looked up again, she realized she had done something foolish. Her fair cheeks instantly flushed, turning red all the way to the tips of her ears.
She looked at Ji Ning in a fluster, and as she saw Ji Ning lightly cough twice, all the gazes fixed on her in the room immediately shifted away.
Fu Ninghao watched these people impassively, feeling a slight movement in his heart, but his face remained harmonious as he said, "Tangtang is still so courteous."
Bai Xiaotang sat down, gratefully glancing at Ji Ning. The look of admiration in her eyes was something that even Bai Yusen couldn't bear to look at.
At the same time, a sour feeling welled up in his heart, and even the way he looked at Ji Ning carried a hint of resentment.
Ji Ning sipped her tea leisurely, as if she had no concern for anything.
