If Qu Xuexin made a transfer on the Qixi Competition, she would possibly fall into her entice as a result of she could be too busy to cope with her that day.
Qu Xuexin rolled her eyes and mentioned gently, “I’ve nothing to do anyway. Let’s go collectively!”
Qu Moying mentioned in an embarrassed method, “I don’t suppose it’s a good suggestion… It’s already rash for me to go there alone. In the event you go along with me, others will suppose Qu Mansion’s girls lack etiquette.”
Qu Xuexin instructed, “Then… let’s go tomorrow. Let’s first submit our identify playing cards to tell Madam Duan of our go to tomorrow.”
“However it’s in regards to the opening of the store, and I can’t wait any longer!” Qu Moying mentioned helplessly, “Eldest Sister, don’t fear. I will likely be advantageous.

Qu Xuexin gripped the handkerchief in her hand tightly. She actually wished to slap Qu Moying. With these phrases, Qu Moying meant that it was rude for her to go too.
Nonetheless, she couldn’t discover a correct purpose to retort.
She gritted her enamel and revealed a smile. “Okay, Moying, simply go. I’m not in a rush to return now. I’ll go to the road and see if there may be something to purchase.”
Since Qu Moying didn’t need her to observe her, she would go and make her personal association now. County Girl Jingyu’s folks ought to be prepared for motion. She would ask her maid to ship a message later.
