Who would have thought that at this time, he would meet the woman of his dreams and think about spending his life with this woman? Who could have thought that this woman would be the daughter of Prime Minister Yu and be entangled with his own royal nephew? All these things made Murong Yanhui suddenly realize that perhaps he was destined to be entangled with the royal family in this life.

The days of roaming the world and taking revenge are probably just a dream of one's own.

Qu Linlang could understand Murong Yanhui's difficulties very well. Born in the royal family, Murong Yanhui had long been tired of all these struggles. What's more, the current emperor was extremely suspicious, which was a real headache.

Qu Linlang sighed deeply, lamenting, "How many things in this world can go smoothly? There are always frustrations of one kind or another, but the only thing to do is to have a clear conscience! I just saw that woman hurriedly leave, as if she was trying to hide her jealousy. Your Highness, my intuition tells me that Miss Yu has feelings for you that she doesn't even understand."

Murong Yanhui remained silent, but after Qu Linlang's words of comfort, he became more determined in his thoughts. She was right. Why should he give up the woman he loved just because he didn't want to get entangled with the royal family?

If this is his fate, I think he can't escape it!

In that case, why not have a fight?!

A confident and devilish smile returned to his face. Murong Yan clasped his fists towards Qu Linlang and said, "A conversation with you is worth ten years of study!"

Qu Linlang burst out laughing. "Your Highness is really too kind to me. I am of humble status, and to receive such care from Your Highness is truly a blessing I've earned in ten lifetimes, especially for Yue'er..."

Qu Linlang paused, her gratitude overflowing with words. Before she could speak, Murong Yanhui interrupted her, "Linlang, don't underestimate yourself. Compared to some so-called ladies from wealthy families, women like Linlang are truly worthy of admiration."

Qu Linlang bowed to Murong Yanhui again and said, "Then Yue'er will be handed over to the prince. Linlang really can't leave for too long. The sisters are still waiting for her to return!"

Murong Yanhui suddenly seemed to remember something and asked, "Are you leaving now? It's so rare for you to come here, why don't you go see Baili..."

Qu Linlang lowered her eyebrows, hiding the bitterness in her eyes, "Your Highness, please don't embarrass me. It's better not to meet. If we are destined to meet, we can do it in the future..."

Qu Linlang did not continue. If they were destined to be together, they would naturally be together one day. If they were not destined to be together, then meeting would only add to each other's troubles and sorrows.

Murong Yanhui secretly sighed that fate was playing tricks on her. If Qu Linlang was not the most popular courtesan in that brothel, if the person Qu Linlang had fallen in love with earlier was Baili, if Qu Linlang had not given birth to Yue'er, perhaps there would not be so much rejection of her in the Baili family. But how can there be so many maybes in life?

Everything is a drama arranged by God long ago, and they are just roles in this world.

"In that case, Linlang will take her leave. Your Majesty, please hurry up and catch up with Miss Yu. Explain everything to her. A woman's heart can sometimes be biased by a misunderstanding."

After saying goodbye, Qu Linlang left in a hurry.

As for Yu Qingli, she strolled in the moonlight, passing through the winding corridors. The fragrant flowers and plants on both sides were particularly alluring in the night breeze.

"The subtle fragrance supports the green willows, and the emotions are unknown..."

Yu Qingli murmured softly, a sentence suddenly popping up in her mind. Who had said this before? She couldn't seem to remember it, but after saying it, Yu Qingli felt a little surprised. Emotional?! Was it me?!

His eyes suddenly widened, and he took a few steps back involuntarily, stopping only when he touched the railing behind him. "No, this is impossible!"

Yu Qingli persuaded herself to calm down, but the pleasant cool breeze blowing from the lake could not blow away the irritability in her heart. She kept asking herself, was she attracted to Murong Yanhui?

No! Absolutely not! Shouldn't, won't, can't!

Yu Qingli looked up at the cold moonlight in the sky and felt her whole body grow colder. Thinking of the cold moonlight at the time of her death, she closed her eyes slightly. When she opened them again, she was already indifferent. Yes, how could she possibly be attracted to a playboy? Moreover, in this life, she must marry Murong Feng.

After calming down a little, Yu Qingli walked towards the lake. Most of the people in Xiaoyao Hall had left, only Baili Changjue and Ye Lixue had not left yet. They would probably stay in the villa tonight. The mess on the ground had already been cleaned up. After the gorgeous fireworks, all that remained on the lake was the still cold moonlight and the occasional smell of fireworks.

"Is Miss Yu alone? Where is the prince?"

Seeing Yu Qingli coming over, Baili Changjue took the initiative to greet her. Yu Qingli was speechless. Why were these people asking her about Murong Yanhui? She was not related to him. It was just extremely strange!

But she couldn't find any reason to be angry. Perhaps they saw her helping Murong Yanhui out, and now she came here alone, so they probably just asked casually. If she remembered correctly, the person who spoke should be Murong Yanhui's good friend named Baili Changjue.

Yu Qingli had heard of this person. In her previous life, Baili Changjue, the eldest son of the Baili family, did something that shocked the entire Canghe two years later. It was said that he was willing to spend all his family property for a woman. The most important thing was that the woman was a prostitute with a child.

Yu Qingli vaguely remembered that when everyone on the street was talking about this matter, she had once jokingly asked Murong Feng, "If I ever find myself in such a predicament, would you do the same?"

Yu Qingli could no longer remember how Murong Feng responded at that time. She only remembered that Murong Feng seemed to be very disdainful of this and seemed to have laughed at Baili Changjue.

"Miss Yu, are you okay?"

Seeing Yu Qingli's dazed expression, Baili Changjue spoke politely. He and Ye Lixue were not optimistic about the woman that their friend liked. This Miss Yu always gave them a very strange feeling. It seemed that she had feelings for the prince but was not at all interested.

Yu Qingli came back to her senses. "Oh, nothing. The prince is talking to Madam Qu. I can't interrupt..."

"Linlang is here?!"

Before Yu Qingli finished speaking, she saw the always elegant Baili Changjue suddenly stand up from his chair and tug at Yu Qingli's sleeve in a somewhat awkward manner, "Where is Linlang?"

Yu Qingli was a little surprised. Why was Baili Changjue so excited?!

"In Jinseju..."

Before Yu Qingli could finish her words, she saw a figure flash before her. When she looked again, Baili Changjue had already arrived outside Xiaoyao Hall. His speed was even faster than that of a rabbit!

Yu Qingli was stunned, and a thought flashed through her mind: Could this Qu Linlang be the brothel girl who made Baili Changjue spend all his family wealth?

She was a little shocked. There really wasn't even a hint of worldly charm in her. But Yu Qingli was also a little confused. Wasn't Qu Linlang Murong Yanhui's lover? How could she be related to Baili Changjue?

In the huge hall, only Yu Qingli and Ye Lixue, who looked very straightforward, were left.

Yu Qingli nodded to Ye Lixue rather awkwardly and prepared to leave the hall and go for a walk outside. She thought everyone had left, but she didn't expect that they were still here.

"What is your purpose?!"

"Purpose?" Yu Qingli couldn't help but curl her lips. Was this how her presence made Murong Yanhui's friends feel? Did she still think she was the one being pitied? Wasn't she brought back by Murong Yanhui?

Although she admitted that it was Murong Yanhui who saved her, it was also he who restricted her freedom.

Ye Lixue looked at Yu Qingli coldly. He and Baili Changjue had seen everything that had happened during this period of time. The woman in front of them didn't seem like someone who was willing to be sincere to others, but she kept approaching the prince again and again.

The situation is confusing for those involved. Murong Yanhui does not seem to reject her approach and is even willing to do some incredible things for her, but they are very worried.

Ye Lixue snorted coldly, "You'd better hide your fox tail and don't let us catch you. Was it Murong Feng who sent you to monitor the prince, or was it your father Yu Zhengsha, or was it his master behind the scenes, the current emperor?!"

Ye Lixue asked very frankly, and the seriousness in his eyes made Yu Qingli want to explain, but she didn't know where to start. Indeed, her identity was destined to be unclear, plus her relationship with Murong Feng, and most importantly, she and Murong Yanhui had indeed made a lot of deals.

Yu Qingli lowered her brows and thought for a moment before answering, "The Prince and I have always had a mutually agreed-upon transaction. There's no such thing as a purpose. Furthermore, I can't possibly be a spy sent by those people to monitor the Prince. Young Master Ye can rest assured about this. Besides, I'll be leaving here tomorrow morning!"

Ye Lixue didn't seem to believe it. If she didn't have any purpose, why would she approach Murong Yanhui again and again? Not to mention anything else, she had already been to this villa twice!

It is really hard to believe that she has no purpose. However, if she just wants to get close to Murong Yanhui and live with him forever, then there is nothing wrong. But if she comes to the villa under this pretext to find out the details, then even if Murong Yanhui is reluctant to take action, as close friends, they will stop this from happening in time.

Looking at the coldness in Ye Lixue's eyes, Yu Qingli was a little envious of Murong Yan's return. It was really a blessing to have such a close friend around.

Yu Qingli met Ye Lixue's eyes calmly and spoke seriously, "Master Ye, I think you may have misunderstood something, but I promise I will never hurt the prince. After all, he once saved my life."

They didn't have much in common in their previous life, and even after being reborn, it was estimated that not much would change. Moreover, in two months, she would become Murong Feng's wife, and by then, the relationship between them would be that of elder and junior, and it would be impossible for them to have any connection.
