I made my fortune by livestreaming in ancient times.

Zhang Ma hadn't even run away, but her wailing and howling still echoed around the yard several times.

Banxia spat, "Pah, all you do is bully people. You're not here to find a hairpin, you're clearly here to spy on our yard."

Zhu Luo clapped his hands at the little wolf cub: "Banxia is smart. It doesn't matter how much money I hand over, they will still suspect that I am hiding other money."

The little wolf cub obediently ran over, and Zhu Luo picked it up and kissed it repeatedly. "Little Grey has done a great job today. Tonight, you'll get to drink goat milk as a reward."

Banxia was still worried: "But what if Madam is convinced that the hairpin was lost in Qingfeng Garden? What should we do then?"

Zhu Luo smiled and closed the door nonchalantly: "Then let's argue our case. If we really can't win, what's wrong with giving her one?"

"Oh? Miss is planning to give Madam a hairpin? That's such a waste."

Zhu Luo laughed and said, "It's worth it. Let's not talk about them. Little Grey said he's hungry."

Banxia exclaimed, "Ah! Charcoal fire! We've been burning it for nothing!"

The two turned back and found someone fiddling with a charcoal brazier in front of the tent.

His beloved giant wolf, Feng Sha, lay not far away, watching them warily.

Banxia was scared, so she didn't follow and instead went into the tent.

The grill sizzled, and several skewers of meat had reached the perfect golden brown color.

"Your Highness? You haven't left yet?" Zhu Luo asked curiously as she approached.

Xiao Mingyan shook the skewers: "You want me to leave sooner? You want to eat all by yourself?"

"Where can I find such humble snacks? It's just that I'm afraid Your Highness won't find them appealing."

Xiao Mingyan turned around and glared at her, but Zhu Luo made a new discovery.

The charcoal fire was burning brightly, and the light fully illuminated Xiao Mingyan's face; he hadn't put on dark circles under his eyes today.

"Hmph, if anyone else had said that, I wouldn't have given it a second thought. But since you said it, I'm intrigued."

Zhu Luo suddenly shuddered: "Hehe, Your Highness, you're really giving me face."

"That's right. Didn't you say that you're the one in the world least likely to harm me? Another interpretation of that is that what you give me is always the best. Am I right?"

His eyes shone with fire, and every tremor of his eyes made her heart pound.

Without his dark circles, his appearance became even more outstanding. His unparalleled handsomeness contained an imposing aura and domineering presence, which was not a good thing for a prince.

"I wasn't joking with Your Highness. Your sudden seriousness has made me nervous. You're right, it wouldn't be me who harms you, but..."

"How can there be conditions?"

Zhu Luo shook his head: "There are no conditions. As long as I'm here, I will protect Your Highness. Don't worry."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Mingyan frowned: "You still want to leave?"

Zhu Luo glanced at the grill, took out a spice bottle, and sprayed it all over the grilled meat: "That's right, my family is all over there. If I don't go back, they'll worry. Could it be that Your Highness can't bear to let me leave?"

Actually, apart from asking for money, her younger brother hasn't shown any concern for her lately.

When she first started doing live streaming, he would often ask her how she was doing, telling her not to overwork herself or eat anything that would upset her health.

If she could go home, she would definitely find an opportunity to have a good talk with him about the meaning of family ties and their future together.

Xiao Mingyan tossed the meat skewers onto the shelf and sneered, "It's Wind and Fire Wheel. The stuff you wrote is not even fit for human eyes. Teach Cang Xu a lesson before you consider leaving."

"Oh, that's indeed a bit difficult to explain, but don't worry, I'll definitely help you with after-sales service."

Xiao Mingyan stood up: "Well, let's leave it at that then, Feng Sha."

The giant wolf also stood up, shaking off the dust and fallen leaves from its body.

Zhu Luo was startled: "Your Highness, are you going back? This is the meat you roasted."

"You can eat. I've only come to deliver a gift. Do you expect me to stay overnight instead of going back?"

Zhu Luo choked.

She didn't say that, did she?

After pondering for only a moment, the man and the wolf left Qingfeng Garden.

As for how they got there...

Zhu Luo thought to herself, "Why don't we just knock down that low wall and replace it with a row of bushes?"

The little wolf in my arms was whimpering.

"Don't worry, your father will come to see you often."

The comments section was filled with regret.

They left so quickly.

Don't you guys think the young prince doesn't want Luo Luo to leave?

[Isn't the answer definitely yes? The male and female leads have to have a happy ending.]

Lolo felt a sudden emptiness in her heart and lost her appetite for grilling meat. She said goodnight to everyone and agreed to go offline after the live stream the next day.

In the front yard, in the Yufeng Courtyard, Shen Jinxi paced back and forth, while Qi Rong beside her was still wiping away tears, and her daughter Shen Nianjiao would occasionally offer a few words of comfort to her mother.

"Mother, it's just a palace banquet. Today's main character is Uncle. It's alright for me to suffer a little grievance. Don't be angry, okay?"

"How can I not be angry!" Qi Rong became more and more annoyed. "The Empress met so many people, but when it came to my daughter and me, she only asked, 'Has Luo Luo returned?' What's wrong with that? Is it my fault that I didn't take her with me?"

“Mother, this is certainly not your fault.”

Qi Rong glanced at the man and cried even harder: "She angered your father as soon as she got home, turning the house upside down. We haven't seen her for six years, how could we know her habits? What if she acts so recklessly in the main hall? Wouldn't that be pushing your father to the brink of disaster?"

Shen Jinxi frowned: "It's not that exaggerated. Jiaojiao is right. The main character of tonight's banquet is General Qi. We who have not contributed anything should leave as soon as possible."

Shen Nianjiao added fuel to the fire, saying, "Father is right. The Empress also wants us to go home early so we can have a reunion dinner with my sister."

"She was kicked out, you know. Didn't you hear what they said? They said we mistreated your sister. From now on, everyone will know that only Shen Zhuluo has any face in the Shen family."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Shen Jinxi rebuked sharply, "The Empress is unaware that Luo Luo has become like this. She is only thinking of our past relationship. Madam, please don't overthink it."

Qi Rong wiped away her tears and squinted slightly: "Master, I heard that there's something fishy about the fire in the storeroom. Zhu Luo came in through the back kitchen door, and that path would definitely pass by the fire site. Do you think it could be her..."

"Impossible!" Shen Jinxi denied it outright. "She's just a little girl, how could she dare to commit arson? Besides, she's been away from home for six years and doesn't know that's a storeroom. Madam, don't believe the rumors. Let's drop this matter today. In a few days, you can take Luoluo to the palace, and the problem will be solved."

“We don’t need to wait that long,” Shen Nianjiao said. “Mother, the day after tomorrow is the flower festival held by the Princess’s Mansion. We will take my sister with us then, and all the rumors that are bad for us will be dispelled.”

Qi Rong looked at her daughter suspiciously: "You want her to go?"

"Why not? If she doesn't show up for a day, others will blame Mother again. Don't worry, your daughter will definitely protect the Shen family's reputation and take good care of my sister."

Shen Jinxi nodded: "Jiaojiao is becoming more and more sensible."

Just then, Zhang Ma's terrified voice rang out from outside the door: "Master, Madam, there's a ghost! There's a ghost in Qingfeng Garden!"
