"Meet Miss Yue Lan?" Faced with Zhu Bufan's request, Grand Steward Liu was caught a bit off guard; he really didn't understand why Zhu Bufan would suddenly bring up Yue Lan.
"This... young man, we're discussing whether you'll join Lanyue Pavilion, what does this have to do with Miss Yue Lan?" Narrowing his eyes slightly, a smile remained on Grand Steward Liu's face.
"Oh, actually, it's like this. Last time, I saw Miss Yue Lan hosting an auction from a distance, and was deeply impressed by her talent, so today I wanted to see Miss Yue Lan up close, I hope Grand Steward Liu won't misunderstand," Zhu Bufan responded with a light laugh upon hearing Grand Steward Liu's words. Huo Ling, in coordination, sneakily twisted a soft spot on Zhu Bufan's waist, a move hidden yet still 'caught' by Grand Steward Liu, causing Zhu Bufan's face to instantly turn a steely blue.
