Ji Yu's eyelids drooped.
For some reason, a hint of loss could be sensed on that ordinarily insipid face.
It was only after a long while that he spoke up,
"Did the Young Master also find Ji Yu's situation unexpected?"
Su Yan didn't understand how this matter had come to involve him.
But she quickly shook her head nonetheless,
"Certainly not."
As she spoke, she said,
"I will redeem you the day after tomorrow."
Having said that, she paused, with the image of Third Prince Ouyang Qing crossing her mind.
She reached out, taking his hand,
"It was you who wanted me to redeem you, you can't agree to anyone else."
She was earnest in her words.
The scene of a junior official holding Su Yan's hand fluttered through Ji Yu's mind.
He had never had such a narrow heart.
But he just felt that the scene earlier was an eyesore.
Yet, when he looked down at her, looking so sincerely at him,
It seemed like the trace of displeasure in his heart began to dissipate gradually.
