“What is this?” Wei Chang asked her. His face was expressionless.
Liu s.h.i.+ inhaled. For a short moment, her expression was fl.u.s.tered. She quickly adjusted her expression.
Without any hurry, she smiled and asked, “Isn’t this an earring? It’s quite plain. Why did Master ask me to look at this?”
