In a hurry to witness Ji Fengyan's downtrodden state, Ji Qingshang rushed out without delay.
But…
Ji Qingshang didn't see Ji Fengyan's horse carriage when she reached the front gates of the Ji family residence. There was only a carriage bearing a white lion emblem—the Grand Tutor's unique symbol—parked outside.
In an instant, Ji Qingshang's expression shifted from smugness to joy.
"Grand Tutor's carriage? The Grand Tutor is here?" All thoughts on Ji Fengyan flew out the window the moment Ji Qingshang saw Xing Lou's horse carriage. She hastily checked to see if she looked presentable, all the while eyeing the dark guard as he disembarked and went to open the carriage door. Ji Qingshang's heart had nearly risen to her throat, she couldn't wait to put her best face forward for Xing Lou.
"Do I look fine like that?" Ji Qingshang hurriedly questioned a nearby maid.
