Half an hour later, at a certain club in the Imperial Capital, Ruan Qi entered a private room with Mo Lan.
Inside the room, He Yun had already arrived. She sat on the sofa and, seeing Ruan Qi enter, didn't get up. She merely adjusted the fur shawl draped over her shoulders, raising her chin with a touch of arrogance.
"Miss Ruan, please take a seat."
Ruan Qi walked over and sat on the sofa opposite He Yun.
He Yun glanced at her, then shifted her gaze slightly towards Mo Lan at the side: "Miss Ruan, I'm not quite accustomed to having outsiders present while talking."
Ruan Qi was removing her coat. Upon hearing this, she paused, and her beautiful eyes curved slightly into a smile.
"Mrs. Cheng, there's something you might not have figured out: today, you're the one asking to meet me, not the other way around. If you're not comfortable with outsiders present, then I'll be on my way. When you get used to it, we can talk then."
