Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

‘Send me back? This means that Yunxi will have to go to the King of Youshan’s

Residence!’

Luo Xiuran panicked.

After the Emperor allowed Feng Yili to stav in the capital. they cleaned up the originally abandoned King of Youshan’s Residence in the capital and moved in. Under normal circumstances, it was not a big deal if Yu Yunxi went to the King of Youshan’s Residence, but at this moment, the little bun was there. After a moment, Luo Xiuran said, “It’s fine. I can go back on my own.”

“No, I insist, Young Marquis Luo. After all, you’ve done me a huge favor tonight. Let me send you back,” Yu Yunxi said lightly.

‘I did her a huge favor? What did I do?’

Luo Xiuran was confused. However, seeing that Yu Yunxi had no intention of explaining, he could only dismiss his doubts.

Fortunately, in the end, Yu Yunxi left as soon as she dropped Luo Xiuran off at the entrance of the King of Youshan’s Residence.

“Phew! Fortunately, everything turned out okay…”

Luo Xiuran looked at Yu Yunxi’s departing carriage and patted his chest in relief. He knew that Feng Yili planned to wait for Yu Yunxi to regain her memories before they reunited. He was very worried that he would accidentally ruin Feng Yili’s plan.

At this moment, a childish voice suddenly asked, “What are you looking at?”

Luo Xiuran’s body stiffened. He slowly turned around and saw Qian Qing and the little bun standing at the door. He pretended to be calm and cleared his throat before he said, “Qian Qing, Junjin, were you waiting for me?”

The little bun did not respond to the question. Instead, he asked in a low voice, “Didn’t we come here to look for the Imperial Preceptor? It’s been so many days, but we’ve neither hide nor hair of him. Where is he?”

Luo Xiuran had a headache when he heard these words. The only thing that supported the little bun until now was the desire to avenge his mother. The little bun only agreed to come to Xichu to look for the Imperial Preceptor so he could avenge his mother.

Luo Xiuran shook his head and said, feeling sorry, “We found no traces of the Imperial Preceptor after arriving in the capital. We’ve been secretly investigating the matter, but we’ve yet to find anything..

The little bun’s expression turned desolate immediately. After a moment, he asked, “What about him? Where did he go? Why isn’t he looking for the Imperial Preceptor?”

‘Him?’

Luo Xiuran was momentarily confused. It took a moment before he realized that the little bun was referring to Feng Yili.

Ever since Yu Yunxi’s accident, the little bun had been estranged from Feng Yili. He refused to address Feng Yili as ‘Father’, and he refused to speak to Feng Yili directly.

“He left the city to deal with something. However, I don’t know what it is,” Luo Xiuran replied, shaking his head.

“Oh,” the little bun replied coldly before he turned to leave. However, after taking a few steps, he recalled something and stopped in his tracks. With his back facing Luo Xiuran, he asked in a low voice, “Is he… is he seriously injured?”

“How do you know that?” Luo Xiuran asked nervously.

In order not to worry the little bun, Feng Yili had ordered the secret guards to hide this matter.

“I may be young, but I’m not a fool! Do you think you can hide it from me?” the little bun said angrily.

Luo Xiuran:

Indeed. The little bun was even more intelligent than some adults. It was not surprising that they could not hide the matter from him.

“Well, if you see him, just… tell him to be careful. If something happens to him, no one will help me avenge Mother,” the little bun said, looking embarrassed before he ran away with his short legs.

Luo Xiuran:

‘It seems like the little bun is also an awkward person… He’s clearly worried about his father, but he still pretends not to care…’

Luo Xiuran looked at Qian Qings thin frame and felt distressed. He could not help but express his concern for her, clearing his throat before saying, “Qian

Qing, the weather has been a little cold recently. Remember to dress warmer…”

However, Qian Qing remained distant to Luo Xiuran. She said expressionlessly,

“There’s no need for Young Marquis Luo to worry. I’m not cold.”

‘Is she really going to continue treating me like this?’

Luo Xiuran lowered his gaze, hiding the bitterness in his eyes. His relationship with Qian Qing had eased a little previously, but unexpectedly, it had gotten worse again. He could not help but say, “If, If Yunxi were alive, we…”

Qian Qing interrupted Luo Xiuran coldly, “Young Marquis Luo, there’s no need for us to torture each other. We’re not compatible, to begin with.”

With that, Qian Qing left without looking back.

Luo Xiuran stood rooted to the ground, feeling a lump in his throat. He tried to comfort himself as he murmured, “Just because you say so, it doesn’t mean that we’re really incompatible! I think that we’re very compatible! We’re very compatible. When Yunxi regains her memory, I’ll continue to pursue you.”

On the other side, Yu Yunxi had already arrived at the Yu Residence.

Perhaps they had been reprimanded by the eunuch, Li Xu, so the people from the second branch of the Yu family were very obedient tonight. They did not come out to cause trouble when Yu Yunxi returned.

Yu Yunxi was naturally happy. When she returned to Ning Courtyard, she discovered that many of the maidservants looked flustered. She asked in a low voice, “What happened?”

“Eldest Princess, we… we heard strange noises in this courtyard.”

A few of the maidservants kneeled down, looking nervous.

Yu Yunxi and Meng Xia exchanged a look. Both of their expressions turned solemn immediately.

‘It seems like that thing hidden in the dark is causing trouble again…’

Yu Yunxi knew the most important thing now was to appease and calm everyone down. She smiled gently and said, “Don’t be afraid. When I first moved here, I felt that this place was too deserted so I placed a few bells on the eaves. In my opinion, those strange noises are caused by the bells…”

‘Really?’

The maidservants looked at each other. However, it seemed like they believed

Yu Yunxi.

“It’s just a matter. Alright, you can return to your business. Go and rest,” Yu Yunxi said calmly.

“Yes, Eldest Princess.”

After a moment, Yu Yunxi’s gaze fell on a timid maidservant. She asked, “By the way, what’s your name?”

“Eldest Princess, my name is Yu’er,” the maidservant replied nervously.

Following that, Meng Xia leaned over and explained in a low voice, “Eldest Princess, because we didn’t have enough people to serve you, we hired her from outside. Don’t worry. Her background is clean.”

‘I see. No wonder she’s not as calm as the other maidservants…’

Yu Yunxi turned to Yu’er and said, “My shoulders are a little sore. Come and give me a massage.”

“Yes, Eldest Princess,” Yu’er replied, still nervous.

“Eldest Princess, if your shoulders are sore, I can massage them for you,” Meng Xia quickly said.

“There’s no need for that. You’ve been helping me the entire day. You must be exhausted. You should rest early,” Yu Yunxi said with a smile.

Meng Xia could only lower her head and acquiesce. “Yes, Eldest Princess.”

Following that, Yu Yunxi brought Yu’er into her room. Just as Yu’er was about to give her a massage, she stopped Yu’er and asked, “Yu’er, you’re not from the capital, right? Do you know anything about the capital?”

Yu’er did not look like a native of the capital.

“Eldest Princess, I’m indeed not from the capital. I don’t know where I was born either. For as long as I can remember, I was always traveling with my father from place to place. After he passed, I decided to settle down in the capital,” Yu’er replied softly.

“Then, Yu’er, have you been to Tianxia?” Yu Yunxi asked.

“No,” Yu’er replied, shaking her head. However, when she saw the disappointment on Yu Yunxi’s face, she quickly added, “When I came to the capital, I came into contact with many vagrants on the streets. They were very knowledgeable about the affairs of other countries. If there’s something you want to know, I can ask them for you.” “Very well. There’s indeed something I want to know.”

“W-what is it?” Yu’er asked timidly.

“I want to know about the Princess Regent of Tianxia. What’s her name, and where is she now?” Yu Yunxi said.

“I understand. I’ll leave the residence tomorrow and ask around,” Yu’er hurriedly replied. Although she did not know why Yu Yunxi was curious about the Princess Regent of Tianxia, she naturally would do as she was told. After all, it was the Eldest Princess’ order.

Then, Yu Yunxi said sternly, “You must not let anyone find out that I’m investigating this matter, understand?”
