Madam Gu's surprise was understandable, given that Bao Ziqi lacked neither family background, looks, nor talent.
Without hesitation, Su Ruanruan spoke softly, "I really didn't mean it that way."
Madam Gu then smiled, looked up to a confidante beside her, and said: "That must mean Ruanruan already has someone in her heart, otherwise she wouldn't dismiss Ziqi."
Her attendant laughed along.
Su Ruanruan's face reddened, and she took a sip of coffee to hide it.
Madam Gu's face was full of loving affection as she personally handed over a small pastry: "Have something sweet."
Su Ruanruan ummed in response and took a small bite obediently.
"You're such a good girl," Madam Gu said with a smile brimming across her face.
Looking at the young lady in front of her, eating delicately, she felt an immense fondness.
"Ruanruan, can I come to visit you at school later?"
