"There's no need to apologize. I rather like his sharp and direct personality. And there's no need for you to be so formal to me, in fact Ah-Jian and I haven't even married yet. Just call me Tianyu like my friends do. I'm hoping to learn the ways of the Chengyuan School from you once classes start, Miss Song." Shen Tianyu gave a lighthearted laugh. 

"Of course! Feel free to find me when you have the time, Miss... Tianyu." Song Yanqi hesitated in calling her name, unused to addressing someone of higher position directly.

"Then, I will be taking my leave. I wish you a wonderful rest of the day." Shen Tianyu lowered her head at Song Yanqi who also bowed to her in a fluster. She then turned to Sogn Chengyin. "And to answer your curiosities, yes, I am that woman. Now then, I'll be seeing you around." She then turned and left the stall, Rong Jian following behind her as she went back to check up on Bai Yaoxuan.

"Yaoyao, how are you doing?" Shen Tianyu leaned down to get a good look at Bai Yaoxuan who was currently standing and leaning a bit on Ningwu Liushan for support. 

"I think I'm fine now. Just a little weak in the legs." Bai Yaoxuan replied as she separated herslef from Ningwu Liushan and tried standing on her own. Tjankfully, she didn't pit forward but Shen Tianyu held her arms just in case. No one noticed a light flashed past Ningwu Liushan's eyes when the young girl left him. 

"Then, let's go. We've about seen most of the stalls and that Miss Yang ruined the rest of our little walk. By the way, the Imperial family is having an engagement banquet today, are you okay to go? If you are, I'll send you to Lavender Palace to get dressed up and you can come with them." Shen Tianyu ased the other as she was well aware they were both adults and capable of making their own decisions.

"Yeah, I should be good to go, i just need to sit down for a bit." Bai Yaoxuan nodded at her. 

"Okay, let's get on the carriage then." Shen Tianyu led Bai Yaoxuan off but not before saying her goodbyes to Ningwu Liushan and Bai Longtian, who reminded her they'll see her at the banquet later. 

It was earlier than they had planned but the triple arrived in front of Lavender Palace. Shen Tianyu had her fiancee stay in the carriage with Bai Yaoxuan since it wasn't a good idea for her to move suddenly. She stepped over the htreshold without impediment and made a beeline fot he Manager's Office.

...

The sudden noise startled Bai Yaoxuan out of her thoughts, whipping her head back to look at him. He also tensed, seeing her look like a startled animal. After a few moments of this staring contest, Bai Yaoxuan came back to her senses and lowered her head, scratching the back of it. "Sorry about that. Haha..." She let out an awkward laugh.

"...No, I'm the one that should apologize." After a moment, Rong Jian finally spoke to her for the first time without Shen Tianyu's prompting. 

Bai Yaoxuan lifted her head and straightened up, a somewhat bewildered look on her face. 

"... Sorry... for..." Rong Jian's face scrunched up behind the mask, looking for the right words. "For... hurting you with my spiritual pressure."

Bai Yaoxuan waved her hands in front of herself. "Ah, no, not at all! I mean, you didn't hurt me at all, I don't feel anything amiss! Yeah! It was just a little hard to breathe!" She had a smile plastered on her face as she let out more fake laughs. 

Rong Jian didn't know how to reply to that and just nodded. The inside of the carriage fell into silence again.

'Lingling, hurry and come back!' Bai Yaoxuan's inner self cried as she suddenly found and interest in the tiger fur padding the floor. 

... 

"Hope I'm not intruding on you guys banging[1] in the Office!" Shen Tianyu yelled as she pushed open the door to the Manager's Office. Yanmen Mengxiao and Wu Linghao, who were in fact in their right places, almost jumped up to the ceiling. Shen Tianyu took one glance around and made a noise in her throat. 

"Hrn. So you guys weren't banging, good." She closed the door behind her as the contents of her speech finally reached Yanmen Mengxiao's brain and his face got so red, it looked like his head would blow up at any moment. Wu Linghao who was going over some paperwork on the couch let out a laugh. 

"Hahaha, you're always so interesting, Miss!" 

Shen Tianyu looked over at Wu Linghao and his pile of papers. "You actually go theough papers?" She actd out an expression of absolute shock.

"Hey! I also do my work properly, you know?! What would happen if we're behind because Mengmeng slept in due to back pains!" Wu Linghao, of course, was not referring to normal back pains.
