After the laughter next door, it quieted down for half an hour, then gradually there was movement again. Wu Xueqin and her group originally came out to have fun, and now, having encountered people from the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, how could they not be curious?
Though nothing was shown on their faces and they continued talking, all of them tilted their ears to listen to the noises coming from next door.
This time, a man's voice came through, steady and full-bodied.
Wu Xueqin's hand holding the teacup slightly tightened upon hearing this voice; although she had only heard it once before, she had always remembered it.
It was Dingyuan Marquis.
Sitting on the other side, Feng Yufu and Wu Chuhao secretly rejoiced; they naturally weren't paying attention to this.
Thus, they didn't notice that Wu Xueqin had become more silent than before. However, she quickly perked up, seemingly thinking of something joyful, her eyes also carrying a smile.
