"I wonder if Father and Mother are still here. Hey, come here, go and see if the Princess and the Prince are still in the courtyard."

He Chengjing answered Song Zhili, and just then he saw a maid pass by. He Chengjing gave the maid an order, and the maid immediately ran to the princess's courtyard.

After the maid left, He Chengjing took Song Zhili's hand and led her into the courtyard. Then he called out to the air, "Qingzhu, bring her out."

Upon hearing the sound, Qingzhu immediately appeared before them with a woman. The two of them knelt down before He Chengjing and Song Zhili, saying, "Master, Mistress."

"Okay, get up." After He Chengjing finished speaking, he looked at Song Zhili and pointed to the girl next to Qingzhu, saying, "Ali, this is Qingzhu's younger sister. Her name is Qingshuang. Her kung fu is just as good as Qingzhu's. Let her stay by your side to protect you from now on. That way, I can go out and do things with peace of mind."

After He Chengjing finished speaking, Song Zhili looked at the girl next to Qingzhu.

When Qing Shuang saw Song Zhili looking at her, she immediately knelt down before Song Zhili and said, "This servant greets Mistress."

"Okay, get up. From now on, you can just follow me."

Song Zhili glanced at Qing Shuang and saw that she did indeed look very similar to Qing Zhu. Since He Chengjing had chosen her for her, she must be someone trustworthy.

Seeing Qing Shuang stand up, Song Zhili continued, "From now on, you'll be with me, and I'll definitely treat you well. One thing is that I don't need you to serve me on a daily basis; you just need to stay by my side. Also, I don't like kneeling all the time, so you don't need to kneel before me unless you make a mistake."

The most important thing is that you absolutely cannot betray me. Otherwise, if I find out, I won't let you off easily, understand?

Upon hearing what Song Zhili said, Qing Shuang wanted to kneel again, but remembering what Song Zhili had just said about not liking her kneeling, she bowed and cupped her hands to Song Zhili, saying, "Yes, this servant has remembered it all."

Seeing Qing Shuang like this, Song Zhili was quite satisfied. She then went over and helped her up. "Alright, go downstairs and choose a room for yourself. Just wait for me in the courtyard."

After Song Zhili finished speaking, she stopped looking at the two of them and pulled He Chengjing outside. She thought that it was almost noon, and even if He Zhixuan was not there, Mu Liuxin would still be there. So she pulled He Chengjing in that direction.

After walking for a short while, they saw the little maid who had been stopped by He Chengjing earlier. When she saw Song Zhili and He Chengjing, she immediately bowed to them and said, "Your Highness, Your Highness's Consort, the Prince and Princess are having tea in the courtyard. The Princess said that if Your Highness's Consort is unable to come, she can come and serve tea tomorrow."

Hearing the maid's words, Song Zhili glared at He Chengjing with annoyance, "Fine, we understand, you can go and do your thing."

As soon as she finished speaking, Song Zhili grabbed He Chengjing's sleeve and quickly walked towards Mu Liuxin's courtyard.

Meanwhile, after Song Zhili and the others left, Qingzhu walked up to Qingshuang and earnestly instructed her, "Shuang'er, from now on, you should follow the mistress closely. The mistress is a very good person, and you will definitely not suffer if you follow her. But there is one thing you must remember: when you are by the mistress's side, don't be surprised by anything you see. Just pretend you didn't see anything, understand?"

Qing Shuang didn't understand what Qing Zhu meant, but she still nodded obediently. It wasn't until later, when she saw many strange and unusual things at Song Zhili's place, that she finally understood what Qing Zhu meant.

Of course, that's all in the future. Back to the present, Song Zhili and He Chengjing have arrived at Mu Liuxin's courtyard. They went inside and saw Mu Liuxin and He Zhixuan sitting in the main seats, with He Mengling sitting below them.

When Mu Liuxin saw Song Zhili arrive, she immediately smiled and told the servants to prepare tea.

Soon, the servants brought tea to them. Song Zhili picked up a cup of tea, knelt down respectfully before He Zhixuan, and raised her hands above her head, saying, "Father, please have some tea."

He Zhixuan immediately accepted the tea that Song Zhili handed him with a smile. He then placed the tea on the table next to him and took out a red envelope from his pocket and placed it in front of Song Zhili. "Here, this is your change of address fee."

Song Zhili respectfully accepted the gift and thanked Mu Liuxin. She then offered Mu Liuxin a cup of tea, and Mu Liuxin gave Song Zhili a red envelope in return. After they had both drunk their tea, Mu Liuxin asked Song Zhili and He Chengjing to sit down.

They chatted happily in the main room. Before long, Mu Liuxin had the servants bring up lunch. After they ate lunch together, He Chengjing took Song Zhili back to his courtyard.

As soon as Song Zhili returned to the courtyard, she saw Qing Shuang standing obediently in the courtyard. When she saw Song Zhili and the others return, she immediately went up to greet them, but was stopped by Song Zhili's eyes. She could only call out, "Your Highness, Your Highness's Consort."

"Ah."

Song Zhili still felt a bit sore all over and wanted to go back to her room to rest, but He Chengjing kept following her. In the end, Song Zhili had no choice but to hide in her spatial dimension.

Upon arriving at the space, she suddenly remembered that their phones could contact each other, so she picked up her phone and opened WeChat, only to find that their small group chat had over five hundred messages.

Goodness, what's going on with these two? They've exchanged so much information. She scrolled up through the messages and saw that they were just chatting between the two of them, so she stopped scrolling.

Are you two so free? You're always staying together and chatting on your phones.

After sending that message, Song Zhili also sent the two of them an eye-rolling emoji.

When the two saw Song Zhili come out, they were both very excited and grabbed her, asking how last night went and whether she had a good time.

When Song Zhili saw their questions, she smiled and ignored them, tossing her phone aside. Just as she was about to take a nap, she heard He Chengjing's pitiful voice coming from outside the space.

"Ah Li, how could you be so heartless as to leave your husband all alone outside? Ah Li, please take me inside. I promise I won't do anything."

Hearing his pleading voice from inside the space, Song Zhili couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing. With a thought, she went out and brought him in. Afterward, she hid under the covers and quickly fell asleep.

Seeing that she was exhausted, He Chengjing didn't disturb her. He quietly held her and lay down beside her, closing his eyes to rest.
