Zhou Xingcai expertly began preparing tea and other tasks, while on the tea table beside Yuchi, high-quality tea leaves were served.
Lips noticeably touched with rouge parted, as Zhou Xingcai affectionately caressed her cheeks, her face adorned with an eager smile.
"Young master, don't be afraid of me. I can wholeheartedly be devoted to you."
Zhou Xingcai said with a smile:
"A few nights ago, I noticed something extraordinary about you, young master, that's why I acted this way."
"I hope I haven't caused you any displeasure, I simply wish to get along well with you, young master."
Zhou Xingcai batted her eyes flirtatiously at Yuchi.
