Cui Ming realized it but didn't dare to speak, only silently following behind and attending to her.
Back at Wutong Garden, she saw Hong Ye arguing with the young maidservants in the hallway. Upon seeing them, Hong Ye stood up and said, "Miss, can you guess what news I heard?"
Qin Yuan chuckled, "You disappeared all morning, were you busy gathering news?"
Hong Ye said, "Indeed, with the banquet yesterday, so many people came to the mansion, wasn't there much news?"
Qin Yuan's heart stirred, "So what have you heard?"
Hong Ye had a mysterious expression, "Let's talk inside."
Qin Yuan entered the room, and after the young maidservants served tea, she had everyone leave except for Cui Ming, and asked, "Tell me, what have you heard?"
"I heard quite a lot, let me tell you slowly."
Qin Yuan glanced at the hourglass in the corner and said, "Speak slowly, I don't feel like managing affairs today, I just want to rest."
