From the moment he took advantage of the girl, she knew it would be difficult for her to get out.

"But I've always been curious, how did Jun Li know that girl?" Jiang Xue asked.

"That child is actually Xichen's secret guard. She is a disciple of the Baimian Sect and the mastermind behind the plot to frame Xiaochun and cause the Zhou family to put pressure on us."

Xiao Zhan told Jiang Xue all the details of the investigation.

It turned out that the girl was the one who had hurt the guards in the mansion when the Zhou family came to the mansion to demand an explanation!

She killed those guards in order to use the pressure from the Zhou family to make him punish Xiaochun and thus destroy her relationship with him.

Xiaochun is a maid who has been with Jiang Xue since she was a child. The relationship between the two is more like sisters than master and servant. Touching Xiaochun is equivalent to touching Jiang Xue's bottom line.

The girl took advantage of this and attacked the guards.

"That child..." Jiang Xue's heart trembled after learning the truth. Only then did she realize that this child was completely different from her Liuli.

Her Liuli is an innocent and kind-hearted child who does not understand the ways of the world, does not scheme, and will never hurt innocent people.

No matter how similar they look, she is not her Liuli.

"It's all my fault. I shouldn't have indulged in the sadness of the past, and shouldn't have longed for something that I had already lost..."

If it weren’t for her strong longing for Liuli, Jun Li wouldn’t have found this flaw, and there wouldn’t have been such a stalemate between her and Yun Che.

"This is not your fault." Xiao Zhan saw her self-blaming expression and couldn't bear it. He gently took her into his arms and comforted her, "It is because you have lost something that you know how to cherish it more. This is human nature."

Just like he had experienced six months of separation from her, the longing was stronger than he expected. And now, being able to hug her again, the joy of regaining what was lost was beyond any words to express.

Feeling the warmth of the person in his arms, the relationship between the two became even deeper.

"Xiaoxue." Xiao Zhan whispered in her ear, full of affection. Her name seemed to have magic in his mouth.

"Hmm?" She responded softly, with a hint of tenderness in her voice.

Xiao Zhan's heart was touched by this call, and he gently kissed her lips. At first it was just a gentle touch, but gradually it became passionate, as if he wanted to convey his thoughts to each other in this way.

Soon after, they lay quietly in bed, the curtains swaying gently, and the house was filled with tranquility and peace.

Downstairs, the waiter heard the noise upstairs and looked up curiously, but was pulled away by the boss and sent to take care of the horses.

About an hour later, peace returned to the room.

Jiang Xue snuggled in Xiao Zhan's arms, her long hair scattered on the pillow, intertwining with Xiao Zhan's hair.

She pressed her cheek against his chest, her fingers gently tracing his jawline, her thoughts running wild.

From the serious matters discussed during the day to the intimacy at this moment, everything happened too quickly. Thinking of her enthusiasm just now, her face couldn't help but turn red.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Zhan adjusted his posture so that she would not press on his injured hand, and asked with concern.

Looking at her rosy cheeks, Xiao Zhan smiled with satisfaction.

He liked the little woman side she showed occasionally, which was a unique sight open only to him.

"It's getting late. I have to go back, otherwise my brother and senior brothers will be worried."

I looked up at the sky. The setting sun had dyed the sky red. If I didn't go back, my brother, who was so impatient, might really search the whole city for me.

"and many more."

He stopped her from rising, turned over, propped his arms on either side of her head, and stared down at her.

"What's wrong?" She was puzzled. Why did he look at her like that?

"You haven't promised me yet," he said.

How could this person be so persistent?

Jiang Xue couldn't help laughing. He looked a bit childish.

But she thought he was quite interesting.

Jiang Xue thought for a moment. The two of them had been honest with each other, the misunderstanding was resolved, and such intimate contact happened again.

No matter how you look at it, they should make peace.

She gently raised her hand, hooked it around Xiao Zhan's neck, and pulled gently.

Jiang Xue took the initiative to offer her lips and gave him a kiss.

"I don't want anyone but you."

"Master, Miss Si has not been found yet."

In the mansion, Jiang Chen stood at the door, anxiously looking at the streets under the night sky. Why hasn't Xiaoxue come back yet?

She clearly left the palace before me. Did something happen?

After hearing the report from his subordinates, Jiang Chen became even more worried.

"Huai Chen, don't worry. As long as she is still in the city, my people will definitely find her."

Shangguan Jin patted Jiang Chen on the shoulder and comforted him softly.

If Jiang Chen turned his head slightly, he would have discovered the deep emotions hidden in those eyes, but he did not do so. At this moment, all he could think about was Jiang Xue's safety.

"Your Highness, we found Miss Si's carriage and he has been killed." A guard reported.

Hearing this, Shangguan Jin frowned immediately. He noticed the scars on the body.

"Where is the carriage?" Jiang Chen asked nervously.

The groom was killed, and it was obvious that someone was targeting Xiaoxue. So, where is Xiaoxue now?

"Master Huaichen, someone saw Miss Si's carriage heading out of the city this afternoon."

"Let's go." Jiang Chen didn't want to wait any longer. He believed that Xiaoxue couldn't drive out of the city alone. The only possibility was that the kidnapper took her away. Thinking of this, he couldn't calm down.

He ordered someone to bring a horse, and just as he was about to set off, Xiaoxue's carriage suddenly appeared in his sight.

The moment he saw the carriage, he stepped forward immediately.

"Little Snow."

He anxiously lifted the car curtain and saw Jiang Xue sitting in the car with Xiao Zhan beside her.

"Brother Royal."

Jiang Xue saw her brother's worried look and felt sorry for him. "I'm sorry for making you worry. I'm fine."

"What's going on?" Jiang Chen looked at Xiao Zhan holding his sister's hand tightly, and was full of doubts. Why was Xiao Zhan here? And it seemed that he already knew Xiao Xue's true identity.

"For Xiaoxue's safety, Master Huaichen, why don't we go into the mansion first and talk about it. There are so many people here, so some things are better discussed in private." Xiao Zhan suggested in a low voice.

Although Jiang Chen did not trust Xiao Zhan, a native of Beiling, what he said made sense.

In Huyin City, there are many people who are hostile to Gongzi Mansion and Xiaoxue. If you are not careful, you will get into a lot of trouble.

Jiang Chen temporarily put aside his doubts and gently pulled the reins, causing the horse under him to step back a few steps to make way for the carriage.

So, Jiang Xue's carriage quietly drove into the young master's mansion from the side door. After the carriage entered the mansion safely, Jiang Xue and Xiao Zhan slowly got off.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to visit late at night. He really has a different view of the Young Master's Mansion."
