In the end, Gu Xun never asked the question.
It was Mei Wanying's private affair, and they... hardly knew each other.
It would have been presumptuous to ask.
An overstep of his bounds.
Mei Wanying had already left the Capital City, looking utterly heartbroken. Bringing up his cousin would only cause her needless pain.
That would be far too rude.
He glanced discreetly at Mei Wanying again. She still looked as serene as ever.
If he hadn't seen her charming and lively side before, he would have assumed Mei Wanying was simply a cold and distant person by nature.
He felt a strange sense of disappointment.
'It seems only his cousin can stir her emotions.'
'My aunt intends to matchmake us on this trip back to Jiangnan. I wonder if Mei Wanying knows?'
