An Mingji then stood up as well, casting a deep glance at Allen, who appeared utterly unrepentant.
However, as he turned to chase after Gu Jin, Allen guiltily scratched his nose.
His mind had already spun a narrative detached from reality.
Had the future Young Madam been keeping an eye on him, perhaps because she was captivated by his looks?
Could it be that upon their first meeting, he would need to navigate a love triangle where he loves her but she loves another?
At this thought, Allen shrugged slightly, a self-mocking smile on his face.
One mustn't indulge in wild imaginings; this habit must be corrected.
Thinking back to how the Young Madam looked at him earlier, it certainly did not seem like she wanted to spend a wonderful evening with him.
The emotion in her eyes was unmistakably unwelcoming, even slightly repulsed by him.
This was indeed interesting.
It was clearly his first meeting with the Young Madam, and he couldn't fathom what had offended this lady.
