Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

When Bianca reached the door of the small courtyard, she saw Camryn coming out.

“Bianca!” Camryn greeted her with a smile. “I heard you arrived a while ago but hadn’t seen you. I figured you must have gone to your aunt’s place, so I was just about to look for you.”

Bianca replied, “Grandma York is home, so I stopped by to greet her. We chatted for a bit before I came here.”

She then walked up, linked arms with Camryn, and asked, “Is Evan home?”

“Why? Are you looking for him?” Camryn asked, puzzled.

“No, he always gives me dirty looks when Grandma York isn’t around. I don’t want to bump into him and have him assume I’m following Grandma’s orders. Who cares about him? I have plenty of fellow apprentices to choose from, and they wouldn’t dare refuse me.”

Camryn’s expression darkened. “Evan behaves like that? You’re an honored guest in our family, yet he says one thing to my face and another behind my back. All Grandma asked was for him to see you off a few times, and he’s already overthinking things.”

“Exactly. Who cares about him? Bianca, you’re young, beautiful, and admired by everyone. Wherever you go, flowers bloom. There’s no need to worry about marriage, right? You’re just not ready yet.”
