He Fen waved her concern away. "I already asked the doctor. He exaggerated things because he was afraid of offending the Duke's family. Once the burn heals, there will be no lasting issues."
Relieved, Su Xiao immediately seized the opportunity. "Then let Song Weisha bring him supper tonight. He taught etiquette today, didn't he? Let him guide her privately. Use that chance well."
He Fen agreed without hesitation.
Just then, servants announced that Song Ze and Nie Rougang had returned. Everyone quickly went out to greet them.
Song Yuxuan's gaze lingered as she saw Song Yue walking back arm in arm with Nie Rougang. Her lips twitched faintly. He had told her earlier that he wouldn't return tonight, yet here he was.
At the dining table, Li Meiran boldly took the seat beside Song Yue.
"You failed etiquette class today," he said lazily. "Come to my room tonight. I'll teach you properly."
Song Weisha's hand trembled, and the food slipped from her chopsticks.
