The members of the Guan family took note of her instructions one by one. They couldn’t help but admire Bai Zhi. This was her residence, but she doesn’t care about it at all. She allowed a man with a different surname to sleep in her bed and let him stay still. No ordinary lady will do this.

What more, she was a young lady of the Dongfang family!

Bai Zhi said: “Don’t have any scruples, just treat this as your home. You only need to think about taking care of the injured patients.”

After explaining this, Bai Zhi saw that Master Guan was asleep again. Only then she and the others left the courtyard.

Hu Feng said: “You should live with Aunt Lan first, she is about to get married, you should accompany her more.”

Bai Zhi nodded her head and smiled: “My mother will live in your Jin Palace. You shouldn’t let her be wronged, otherwise, I will not spare you.”

Hu Feng laughed and said: “If you are so uneasy, why don’t you live in my palace too? With you in there, who will dare to bully Aunt Lan?”

When Dongfang Mu heard this, he immediately cut off his thoughts: “Don’t even think about it, how old is Zhi’er? Anyway, no matter how old she is, she still has to live here for 2 years. And you, while you live by yourself in your Jin Palace, you should do your own business. Otherwise, even if 2 years passed, I wouldn’t hand over Zhi’er to you.”

There was something in Dongfang Mu’s words. However, Hu Feng understood his meaning. He believed that if he was still in his current condition after two years, he won’t be able to marry Bai Zhi.

“Master, don’t worry, I know it all in my heart.”

Dongfang Mu nodded his head, stretched out his hand, and patted him on the shoulder. He only needs to stay silent. He doesn’t need to say anything.

Bai Zhi simply watched them play riddles. She didn’t want to find out about it. It’s not that she doesn’t care, she just hoped they will be safe, and that’s enough.

Bai Zhi looked back at her small courtyard and said to Dongfang Mu and Hu Feng: “As soon as the accident happened, people came to kidnap and kill. I guess it won’t be too peaceful tonight.”

Dongfang Mu nodded: “Don’t worry, I will make arrangements so that Master Guan will not get hurt. I will also send shadow guards to the yard where you and your mother live. No matter what you hear, don’t come out. Someone will settle this matter. If I need something, I will call you in person. No one is allowed to go out, do you understand?”

Bai Zhi nodded, “Well, I am, don’t worry!”

The two men, one old and one young sighed at the same time. How can they be at ease? This girl can make them worry too much. She always encounters something every single time. They were afraid that when she encountered something, and they didn’t arrive in time, what would she do when she doesn’t know martial arts?

At Qingfeng Tea House

After Imperial Doctor Liang came out of the palace, he strolled around the street, and in the end, entered this tea house. He chose to sit on the second floor facing the street.

He ordered a pot of Dahongpao and a few plates of dried fruits. He watched the bustling flow of people downstairs, sipping tea and eating dried fruits. He seemed to be in a comfortable mood, but his complexion looked bad.

His eyebrows were frowning and his eyes looked gloomy. Every time he would sip tea, he would sigh as if he was full of sorrow.

He would also look back at the stairs on the second floor from time to time. As if waiting for someone, but the person he was waiting for never came.

At this time, the waiter stepped forward and poured him a tea. After pouring the tea, he turned and left. Imperial Doctor Liang picked up the teacup and found a note under it.

He pretended nothing happened and continued to take a sip of the tea. After putting it down, he quietly unrolled the scroll and glanced at it, then looked down at the street below.

Imperial Doctor Liang crumpled the note into a ball. His complexion became more and more ugly. He no longer wanted to drink tea, so he called the waiter to check out the bill and then left in a hurry.
