After repeatedly giving instructions for a good while, Xia Ke finally continued into the city.
He Lianyu had been following behind all along, and even when Xia Ke spent quite a while talking to the little beggars, he just quietly waited without a word of urging.
The two chatted idly as they walked, and soon arrived at the gate of Xia Mansion.
With He Lianyu around, Xia Ke couldn't just swagger in through the gate alongside him; she had to sneak in through the back door.
"Alright, this is Xia Mansion, excuse my poor manners, but I won't go in with you."
Standing still, Xia Ke pointed at the gate and said to him, "I heard that Xia Zheng and Princess Pingxi have been traveling recently and don't know if they've returned. So, I can't be sure if they are home. Whether you can meet them or not, depends on your luck."
