"My gongzi is a fool!" Luo Qingyang bursts out as soon as they're alone in her tent. "How can he look at someone so kind and lovely and skilled and—”
Jiang Yanli laughs softly. "It's a good thing we're not engaged then. I can spend time with someone who appreciates me."

Jiang Yanli kisses her, a swift press of lips. She retreats after only a moment, face flushed, eyes uncertain. Luo Qingyang takes both of Jiang Yanli's hands in hers and kisses her once more.
