Princess An He said irritably, "She's fine, nothing happened."
Xie Yunzhen didn't trust the elder's words and turned to look at Xi Yu.
Under the intense gaze from the Commandery Princess and the old madam, Xi Yu couldn't say much and just nodded.
"She's alright; she was taken back to the Duke Mansion by the Second Lady that night."
She returned, but then left again.
And she went far to Yangzhou, where it is said the Second Lady has chosen a fiancé for her.
With this setup, it's likely she won't be returning to the capital once she goes to Yangzhou.
Xi Yu silently added these two sentences in his mind.
The words did nothing to reassure Xie Yunzhen; he not only wanted Ji Mingzhu safe but wanted her kept by his side.
Only by seeing her, holding her, even kissing her, could he find peace.
The accumulated longing exploded forth, overwhelming and uncontrollable; Xie Yunzhen disregarded all restraints and got out of bed.
