"Qin Heng had hardly met Yan Suhe before, but he’d heard her name from Jinxi, so he brightened up. “Oh—Suhe, right? I’ve heard of her,” he said."

"Qin Heng answered plainly. “Yes. Jinxi said her sister was sensible and sweet—smiled like an angel, she said. It’s true. But she also warned me your temper’s short; you fly off the handle at the smallest thing and end up doing others wrong. She kept saying she wanted to apologize but couldn’t bring herself. Well, since this is my first time meeting you, I’ll apologize on her behalf. Don’t hold a grudge. And if she throws another fit next time, you scold her back—I'll back you up.”"
