Yang Ruxin frowned slightly, cursing "shit" in her mind. Why did this guy show up? However, she couldn't display her feelings outwardly, so she hurriedly pulled up her signature smile: "This girl greets…"
"Xinxin, congratulations on coming of age!" Qi Jingyun quickly composed himself, stepped forward, and presented an ornate box, simultaneously blocking Yang Ruxin's attempt to bow in greeting.
This clearly suggested he wanted to keep his identity concealed.
"Thank you, Third Master." Yang Ruxin straightened herself instantly. Though unwilling, she had no choice but to accept the gift, handing it off casually to Du Man beside her.
The villagers were well aware that Yang Ruxin knew many esteemed figures, so the arrival of one more guest didn't surprise them. They quickly resumed eating and drinking. Yet, a few people in the courtyard recognized Qi Jingyun—such as Fang Dehua and Wei Bingyi.
