Miss Shui looked at him in surprise. “We don’t need to go to the marqui’s estate first?”

“No, it’ll probably be perfect if you go back later to pay your respects.” As Guibai said this, he left the carriage at Ji Rice Store and led Miss Shui out of the carriage. “Today happens to be Chinese Valentine’s. Miss Shui, feel free to look around.”

Miss Shui thought about it and agreed. This person looked upright and didn’t seem like a person that would harm her. When she had gone over to meet madam in the past, she had seen him from afar twice and thought he had out-of-ordinary bearing. Although he was only an attendant, he had the ability to attract people’s attention.

At that time, she had asked around for his name. It was Guibai. However, after many bumps in the road of life, she had become a middle-aged woman. While she was still attractive, she guessed that he was already married by now.

Sometimes, if you missed that opportune timing, then it was simply hopeless.

Starting from the rice shop, they headed towards the capital’s moat. There were many people on the streets as well as small stalls set up there that sold things that women liked.

As Guibai walked side by side with Miss Shui, his heart kept beating loudly. He sneakily glanced at the person next to him several times, and his heartbeat got louder and louder.

“Sir, how about buying a sachet for your wife? This design matches her very well,” an owner of a stall called out to Guibai.

Guibai froze in surprise for a moment. He blankly took out the money, then turned his head to face Miss Shui and offered the sachet to her. “Wife?”

Miss Shui was startled, but afterwards she couldn’t help breaking into laughter. She glanced at the sachet in his hand for a moment, then took it. “Since it’s a holiday, I’ll accept it.”

“Sir, how about buying a hairpin for your wife? This lotus hairpin is very pretty.”

“...” Guibai took out money again.

“Sir, how about buying a lantern? Today’s Chinese Valentine’s Day. It’s the perfect day to buy one and release it with your wife.”

“...” Guibai continued to buy things.

A short walk later, there was no more money left in his bag. The woman next to him, who was holding a pile of stuff, was laughing so hard that she almost couldn’t breath.

Guibai blankly looked at her. He was surprised that she could laugh so happily. Spending that money had been worth it. After all, she was madam’s important guest.

After Miss Shui was done laughing, she lectured him, “How could you just buy anything that other people tell you too? Does your wife not take charge of your spending?”

Guibai couldn’t resist taking out his mirror and looking at himself, then he somewhat anxiously said, “This one hasn’t married yet.”

Smile stiffening, Miss Shui looked at him as she said, “At your age...”

He was old enough to have a few children already. How could he not be married?!

Guibai was somewhat embarrassed. Fortunately, sky lanterns were being released one after another at this time. In a short amount of time, the entire sky was lit. He quickly pointed at the sky. “Look!”

Miss Shui tilted her head back to look. The capital was truly very prosperous. If she compared the capital to the bleak borderlands, it was like returning to heaven.

The two of them kept their heads tilted back to look at the sky. A passerby bumped into Miss Shui and she, along with the pile of items, was pushed into Guibai’s arms. When she raised her head in panic, she happened to meet Guibai’s lowering head.

Because Guibai was too tall, their lips naturally didn’t touch in a kiss. But, they were so close, and the ,ood felt very ambiguous because of the holiday. It felt as pink bubbles were all around them.

Startled, Guibai took a step back. He looked left and right as he stuttered, “Let’s... go back.”

Miss Shui pushed her hair back and nodded. “Right... yes.”

Awkwardly laughing, the two of them looked away from each other. After going back for the carriage, they headed to the marquis’s estate.

However, when they arrived, they found out the madam and the marquis had been waiting for them this entire time in the main hall. Ji Man had already dozed off. When Ning Yuxuan saw him entering the hall, he looked at him with great displeasure. “Why did it take you so long to pick someone up from the relay station?”

Ji Man woke up from the noise. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Miss Shu. She quickly stood up and said, “You’re finally back!”

Somewhat embarrassed, Miss Shui put down the items and knelt down to salute, “This humble woman...”

“No need for formalities. You suffered for so long.” Ji Man hastily went forward and helped her up. Then, she swept a glance over the items on the floor and looked at Guibai in surprise. “You two...”

Guibai also knelt down and summoned up his courage to say, “This one didn’t know that the marquis and madam were waiting here. This one thought that since today is Chinese Valentine’s day, my lord and madam would have definitely gone out...”

Ning Yuxuan’s blackened expression looked very ugly. It looked as black as the bottom of a pot. “Madam has been waiting here since you left. She wouldn’t go anywhere. Why didn’t you come back to report first? Where did you bring Miss Shui?”

Ji Man stood up and tugged Ning Yuxuan’s sleeve. In a quiet voice, she said, “You won’t even give your employee the freedom for a romance. I prepared a candlelit dinner for us. How about we go back to our room first?”

“What about them?” Marquis Moyu furrowed his brow as he looked at Guibai.

“Just have Guibai bring Miss Shui to the guest quarters so she can rest.” Ji Man hugged his arm as she said, “Only bosses that can show understanding towards their employees are good bosses. You should give Guibai time off for romance. If you don’t, his ancestors from the previous 18 generations won’t let you off. He’s already at this age, and he’s still not married.”

Marquis Moyu twitched his lips. He swept his gaze over the two people kneeling on the floor. “Alright, Guibai, go bring Miss Shui to the quest quarters to rest. We’ll talk tomorrow.”
