Meiying guessed correctly, Pei Zhiyi was indeed lost in this huge City Lord's Mansion.

When the maid found her, Pei Zhiyi was resting under a big tree.

The maid's brows softened, and as she walked towards Pei Zhiyi, her pace was so fast that she herself didn't even notice, as if she was going to meet someone very important to her.

Pei Zhiyi was a little cautious when he was patted on the pat, but when he opened his eyes and saw the maid, the murderous intent in his body instantly subsided.

"Feel sorry."

The maid shook her head and gently gestured "It's okay".

Although Pei Zhiyi didn't quite understand it, he could probably guess that it meant it didn't matter.

So, she can't speak?

What was even more strange was that Pei Zhiyi didn't detect even a trace of demonic energy from this person.

The maid in the City Lord's Mansion was actually just an ordinary human.

"What do you find me for?"

The maid wanted to speak, but the stinging sensation in her throat made her close her mouth again.

She felt a little lost, and she had never been so anxious to speak as she was at that moment.

"Can you write? I see you're human, so you should know human writing, right? I don't understand what you're trying to say, but if you write it down, we might be able to communicate better."

The maid nodded, but also realized that there was no paper or pen here.

"I have."

Pei Zhiyi conjured up paper and pen, and handed them to the gentle human in front of him with both hands.

The maid nodded politely, wrote very quickly, and immediately told Pei Zhiyi why she had come after she finished.

Pei Zhiyi glanced at the words, which were beautifully written, and some small details were surprisingly similar to when she wrote them.

"You mean the city lord asked you to arrange accommodation for me?"

The maid nodded and gestured in a direction for invitation.

"Okay, I'll trouble you then."

The maid shook her head gently, her eyes full of smiles.

The warm interaction between the two people was seen by Phantom.

"I was still skeptical, but now I'm completely sure."

"Does the city lord want to recognize her?"

Phantom shook his head, his tone filled with helplessness and sadness. "I failed to save her back then, and this is a knot in my heart that I can't let go of. Now that I see she's doing well, and even staying with me in this City Lord's Mansion, I suddenly feel that nothing matters anymore. Let's just leave what happened in the past as it is."

Let everything take its course. If she likes the current stable life, then she won't reveal her true identity and let her live her life like this.

"But she's seen her baby now."

This also means that she will start to feel greedy and want to be with her children.

"But isn't this human nature?" Phantom looked at the two similar figures, tears flickering in his eyes. "Keep this a secret and don't tell Shen Yun a word."

"Yes!"

Meiying thought, if Shen Yun himself couldn't see it, then he had no qualifications to rekindle their relationship with her.

"Also, go find the best demon doctor from the demon tribe."

Being unable to speak for such a long time, there must be something wrong with his throat, or maybe it's a problem left over from the past.

“That’s bound to cause a stir.”

"It doesn't matter."

"Yes."

The men disappeared, and the Phantom stood at the rockery for the entire night.

On the other hand, the maid cleaned Pei Zhiyi's residence spotlessly, which could be said to be perfect.

Pei Zhiyi felt a little embarrassed. "Master and I are the ones disturbing the City Lord's Mansion today, and I won't be staying here for too long. You don't have to clean this room so well. I may only stay for one or two nights."

The maid paused as she wiped the table, her lips slightly parted, but she ultimately continued to work with her head down.

Pei Zhiyi didn't know what to say. For some reason, she seemed to have a special feeling for this maid who was assigned to take care of her, as if they had known each other before.

But Pei Zhiyi knew very well that she had never seen this face before.

Therefore, it is also possible that it is because this maid is too kind, which makes her a little timid.

"Thank you so much today."

The maid shook her head and continued writing on the paper. "Are you hungry? Do you need something to eat? I'll make it for you right away."

Pei Zhiyi quickly waved his hand to refuse, "I am a cultivator. I usually practice fasting, so I only feel hungry occasionally. That's why I'm not hungry now. Don't bother me. You have arranged everything very well here. I can rest well now. You should go and rest too."

There was visible disappointment in the maid's eyes, but in the end she did not force it.

He just continued writing and asked, "So what would you like to eat tomorrow morning? I'll have someone arrange it."

This sister was so enthusiastic that Pei Zhiyi couldn't refuse.

"I'm easy to feed. I can eat anything. I'm not picky."

The maid nodded, told him to have a good rest, then closed the door and left.

"Yiyi, I always feel that this person is very similar to you."

When there was no one around, the four little guys ran out, especially Bai Ze. He had just stared at the maid for a long time and now finally asked his questions.

"Like me?"

Pei Zhiyi immediately touched his face and said, "But I think she looks nothing like me. Why do you feel this way?"

"It's not the looks, it's the feeling."

Bai Ze scratched his head. "I don't know how to describe that feeling, but I just feel that the aura around her is very similar to yours, as if they can blend together. Usually, this feeling only appears in the people closest to you. Outsiders will not have such a peaceful and compatible aura."

"Do the auras blend?"

Pei Zhiyi pursed her lips. "When I first saw her, I felt she was very friendly. Logically, I would never get so close to someone I just met, but she didn't make me feel any sense of danger. Instead, I felt that I really wanted to be with her, and I really enjoyed being with her."

"Maybe it's because she's kind?"

Qilin had stuffed all the pastries that had just been prepared for Pei Zhiyi on the table into his mouth. His cheeks were bulging, and he looked a little funny.

Pei Zhiyi: “…”

Bai Ze: "...Eat, eat, eat, all you know is eating!"

Qilin felt wronged. "I don't know how many times I've been hungry these past few days. Now that I finally have something to eat, I must eat more to fill my stomach. Otherwise, what if I have no strength to fight?"

The more Qilin spoke, the more confident he became.

Bai Ze grabbed his ear and asked, "Why do you think about fighting every day?"

"If Yiyi wants to become stronger, then she must fight. I'm not wrong."

The two little ones have started bickering with each other.

Pei Zhiyi shook his head helplessly and refused to get involved in their dispute.
