"Is it because of Prince Chen?" Gu Xingchuan asked.
"No," Ye Qichi said, "It has nothing to do with him."
It was that person who had engraved his name in her heart, which she could never erase.
And he.
Was no longer here.
Gu Xingchuan didn't say anything more.
He felt a bit uncomfortable.
He didn't want others to notice it.
He also didn't want to put Ye Qichi in a difficult position.
Sometimes affection is... perhaps, just affectionately cherished in secret.
The two of them stopped talking.
Just like that, quietly observing everything inside the ancestral hall.
...
Pang Mansion.
At dawn, Xiao Jinxing got up and washed.
As he was having breakfast, he asked the servant attending to him, "Is Pang Nan here?"
"General Pang is here; your servant will go call him immediately," the servant replied.
Xiao Jinxing responded with an "Mm."
Pang Nan quickly appeared in Xiao Jinxing's room, "Your subordinate is here to see you, Prince."
"Get up," Xiao Jinxing said indifferently.
