The news that Yingying had arrived in Yincheng quickly reached the ears of Shangguan Ling, the lord of Yincheng. When Shangguan Ling heard the news, he was also wondering, why did Yingying not go here or there, but she had to come to this small town of her own? Could it be that there is something she wants here?

Song Xi has been grounded for a few days. During these days, Li Dong did not allow her to go out even half a step. Food and drink were delivered to the door of her room, and then he left.

"Hey, Song Lian, what mistake did Xiao Xi make? He never let her go out?"

The neighbors also like Song Xi very much. With her lively and cheerful appearance and her delicate little face, it is difficult for anyone not to like her.

"Nothing's wrong, it's just that Xiaoxi has been a bit dishonest these past two days. I asked her to calm down at home."

Song Lian smiled awkwardly, and she still has lingering fears.

"Then you have to go out and get some fresh air. If this continues, won't Xiaoxi be suffocated?"

Although the neighbors persuaded her, Song Lian did not waver at all and was determined to lock Song Xi until she no longer liked Yingying.

Li Dong returned home from the mansion and walked into the house to find that the food in front of Song Xi's door was still untouched, feeling a little soft-hearted.

"I still haven't eaten at all today. Why is this girl so stubborn? That person is beyond our reach. He will lose his head if we don't pay attention. Why doesn't she understand?"

Song Lian shed tears of distress on the side, but she had no choice but to use this method to lock her up and prevent her from having any contact with Yingying.

"Let me go and persuade you."

Li Dong sighed. In this smokeless battle, they were at a disadvantage.

"Let me go in too."

Song Lian stepped forward and was about to open the door. Before she could touch the door handle, Li Dong reached out to stop her.

"Don't go in. Xiaoxi is a little out of control now that she sees you. I can go in alone."

Li Dong persuaded softly, pulled her hand away, turned the door handle, opened it a crack, walked in, and closed the door smoothly.

The room was dark and dim, Song Xi's little one was sitting quietly on the bed, her hair scattered around her shoulders, covering her delicate little face.

Hearing the sound of the door lock, Song Xi just raised his head and glanced, without giving another look, he continued to lower his head and didn't know what he was looking at.

"Xiao Xi, daddy comes to see you."

Li Dong was heartbroken when he saw this scene. Who wouldn't be heartbroken when his daughter, whom he had doted on since childhood, is now like this?

Song Xi seemed not to have heard anything and sat quietly, like a statue.

Li Dong walked to the bed and gently held the little one sitting on the bed in his arms.

"Do you like her that much? Do you have to be her?"

Li Dong didn't ask any unnecessary questions, but asked her the same question softly.

"Ah."

Song Xi's voice as clear and sweet as a silver bell disappeared, replaced by a hoarse voice like an old woman's.

Song Xi didn't struggle, let him hold her, and didn't give any unnecessary response.

"Xiao Xi, forget about him. Our family can't stand such trouble. We can't compare with his status."

Li Dong did not use his usual serious tone, but gently told her why he disagreed.

Song Xi didn't pay attention to it. In her own heart, she had heard it thousands of times.

Song Lian listened quietly outside, but the soundproofing of the room was very good. She didn't hear any movement through the door. Even the conversation between father and daughter was extremely vague.

"Hey, Xiaoxi, dad, let me tell you the truth."

Li Dong sighed, knowing that if things continued like this, Song Xi would have problems sooner or later. If they didn't tell the truth, they might really lose Song Xi.

When Song Xi heard this, there was a glimmer of light in his empty eyes, and he moved slightly.

Li Dong felt the movement of the little one in his arms and smiled bitterly.

Sure enough, only Yingying's news could make Song Xi react a little bit.

"Xiao Xi, do you remember that girl's name?"

Li Dong didn't rush to say it, but asked an innocuous question.

"Tong Ying."

"Do you think that's her real name?"

Li Dong held her little face and asked her to look at him.

A flash of doubt flashed in Song Xi's eyes, not knowing why he asked.

"Her real name is Yingying. Her surname is Ying. She is His Majesty's biological daughter. She is the princess of the Dimensional Empire. We are beyond our reach."

A flash of disappointment flashed in Song Xi's eyes, and this disappointment was exactly what Li Dong wanted.

"If word spreads that you are with her, it will not be good for her, nor for us. It will also be said that you are following people's influence. Your Majesty will know the influence on her. If Your Majesty vents his anger on us, it will be annihilation for us. disaster."

Li Dong paused and hugged the trembling body tightly in his arms.

"Besides, there is another girl beside her, so forget about her, like, I have never met her."

If Li Dong's previous sentence made Song Xi shaken and disappointed with Yingying, then the appearance of the girl in the last sentence was the last straw for her.

"I'm going to find her."

Song Xi struggled to get out of Li Dong's arms, mumbling, eager to ask Yingying why she lied to her, and what happened to that girl?

Li Dong didn't stop her this time and let her run out of bed, put on her shoes, and ran out.

When Song Lian heard the movement inside, she instinctively took a step back, which gave Song Xi a chance to run out. He opened the door handle and ran out from in front of Song Lian.

"Hey, Xiaoxi, where are you going?"

Just as Song Lian was about to pull her up, she was grabbed by Li Dong who followed him out.

"Why are you still holding me back? Something will happen if she goes out like this!"

Song Lian wanted to throw away his hand and chase him out, but Li Dong unexpectedly held on tightly this time.

"what are you doing!"

Song Lian became anxious and shouted loudly.

"Let her go. When she comes back, she may give up. After all, it's not an option for you to lock her up like this."

Li Dong shook his head helplessly and looked at Song Xi running out with a wry smile.

"But……"

Yingying and Xin Yixi had already found an inn, but they did not explain their identities. The innkeeper and the waiter did not recognize them. After all, Yingying's identity was not known to everyone at this time, only the city lords knew it.

Yingying and Xin Yixi were led to their room by the waiter. When they walked in the door, there was a simple atmosphere. Although Yingying and the others thought it was nothing, Yingmeng frowned after seeing it.
