Qiu Ya sought refuge behind Chuzheng upon seeing Lady Qiu, not sure if he was recalling something or instinctively afraid.
He shrank back, a grown man hunched over, hands and feet drawn in, hiding behind Chuzheng.
The scene was somewhat comical.
Yet also somewhat heart-wrenching.
"You can't see me, you can't see me..."
Chuzheng heard Qiu Ya mutter under his breath.
"Miss Jiang, this is our lady," Qiu Yun took the initiative to explain, "Can you now return the young master to us?"
"I never said I would return him to you."
Lady Qiu's beautiful eyes lingered on Chuzheng for a moment, "This is the Qiu Residence's young master, Miss, you have no right to detain him."
"When did I ever detain him?" Chuzheng retorted.
She revealed Qiu Ya to the view, hugging him: "Do you want to go with her?"
