As it turned out, Juhua wasn't the only one who noticed her unusual relationship with Huai Zi. Her mother and He could see it too—they weren't blind, after all. Juhua wanted to enjoy a proper romance, but the two elders couldn't possibly let the situation continue as it was. Still, they weren't sure how to address it. It was for this very reason that Gou Dan's mother, upon suspecting Meizi had feelings for Qingmu, had rushed to arrange her daughter's marriage.
Juhua's mother, in particular, felt rather anxious and uneasy.
Before, when Huai Zi came to visit, he and Juhua hadn't interacted much. Besides, she was younger then, so it was no great concern. But now that the two were so clearly fond of each other, meeting every day and making eyes at one another, they simply had to be engaged. 'Anything less would be improper!'
