Protagonist:

Yan Qianqian

Chunxi was quick and efficient; in no time she had everything ready and placed the food before Luo Shun.

By now everyone had already begun to eat heartily, enjoying the abundant dishes.

As for An Wang? He had just returned to the Wangfu and naturally needed to change his clothes first before coming to dine with everyone. Thus he arrived slightly later than the others.

An Wangfei knew well that Qianqian and Yan Jie had been traveling hard and might not have eaten properly, so she specially instructed them to start eating first and not stand on ceremony.

After all, the An Wang Fu was not a place that particularly emphasized rigid etiquette.

When An Wang stepped into the dining hall, Qianqian was eating as if sweeping away clouds with the wind, completely immersed in the world of food.

Seeing this, An Wang did not speak, but went straight to his seat, elegantly picked up his chopsticks, and began to slowly savor the dishes on the table.

Only when Qianqian's eating speed gradually slowed did An Wang unhurriedly call out: "Qianqian."

Hearing the voice, Qianqian abruptly raised her head, still chewing food in her mouth, and asked indistinctly: "What is it, Father?"

An Wang smiled faintly and said softly: "After you finish eating later, come to my Shufang."

Qianqian hurriedly swallowed the food in her mouth, nodded, and replied: "I understand, Father."

Then everyone fell silent and continued to quietly enjoy this delicious lunch.

After the meal, Yan Jie did not take a nap like the others, but after greeting An Wangfei, he hurriedly went out and left.

Because he had previously studied medicine at Shenyi Gu, Qianqian's letter had been sent by someone dispatched by An Wang. After receiving the letter, he simply informed Bai Yu, then set out for Xishang Kingdom.

However, considering that bringing Bai Yu might be inconvenient, he promised to pick him up together when he returned.

Thus, after finishing lunch, Yan Jie greeted An Wangfei, mounted his horse, and galloped straight toward Shenyi Gu.

At the same time, after finishing her meal, Qianqian also followed An Wang to his Shufang.

The two entered the Shufang one after the other; An Wang sat leisurely in the Zhuo Wei, while Qianqian casually found a seat and poured herself a cup of water.

After all, her mouth had been a little dry during the meal, and drinking some water to moisten her throat was good.

Just as Qianqian raised her water cup to drink, An Wang suddenly said: "You didn't actually go traveling this time, did you?"

These words were like a bolt from the blue, making Qianqian's heart tighten, and she silently thought, Not good.

But she quickly calmed herself, put on an air of nonchalance, and replied: "I did go traveling."

However, An Wang's gaze was like that of a hawk or falcon, fixed tightly on Qianqian, as if he wanted to see through her surface to her true inner thoughts.

Being stared at like that, Qianqian couldn't help but feel a little panicked, and the water cup in her hand trembled slightly.

Seeing this, An Wang slightly furrowed his brow and continued to press: "Then why did you happen to appear in Xishang Kingdom, and even get caught up in this battle?"

His voice was calm, but it contained a barely perceptible majesty.

Qianqian's heartbeat grew even more rapid; she took a deep breath, steadied herself, and then explained: "I was just traveling in Xishang Kingdom when I happened to hear that fighting was about to break out, so I went to join the excitement."

An Wang understood clearly, as if looking into a bright mirror, that she had not been completely honest with him, but he did not get angry; instead, he earnestly instructed: "In the future, never again travel to places too remote. If you encounter any mishap, even if we are willing to rescue you, we may not be able to reach you in time."

Now Xishang and Beilin no longer exist; everywhere are displaced refugees. You should stay peacefully at home, do not run about recklessly, lest your mother worry endlessly.

Qianqian obediently nodded and replied: "I know, Father."

Seeing this, An Wang felt somewhat relieved and continued: "If you have time, you might as well visit your Huang Bobe. He also misses you very much and often speaks of you."

Qianqian hurriedly replied: "Mm, I'll go this afternoon."

An Wang nodded in approval and said calmly: "Mm, very good. Besides, there is nothing else."

You are growing older and have your own opinions; we as parents cannot interfere too much. But no matter when, you must always put your own safety first.

Qianqian obediently replied: "Alright, Father. Daughter remembers." After speaking, she turned and returned to her Yuanfu.

At this moment, Qianqian felt that her body still gave off strange odors; obviously she had not yet had time to bathe and change.

As soon as she entered the Yuan Zi, she hurriedly called the yatou Mantou and instructed: "Hurry and prepare hot water; I want to bathe."

This Mantou was very thoughtful, knowing Qianqian's habit of loving cleanliness, so she had already prepared the bathwater early for her to use at any time. Hearing Qianqian's instruction, Mantou quickly and efficiently prepared everything.

Qianqian soaked in the warm water, feeling all her fatigue washed away. Wrapped in a soft towel, she lay on the comfortable bed and soon entered sweet dreams.

When she slowly woke up, sunlight had already streamed through the window into the Room.

She stretched lazily, then suddenly remembered Luo Shun, not knowing where he was now. So she called Mantou and asked: "Mantou, is Jie'er in the Yuan Zi?"

Mantou respectfully replied: "Miss, the Sixth Young Master is not in the Yuan Zi; he went to Shenyi Gu to pick up Old Master Bai."

Qianqian nodded. It was good that Yan Jie had gone to pick up Old Master Bai; she hadn't seen Old Master Bai in a long time and missed him very much. She changed her clothes and walked toward Yan Jie's Yuan Zi with light steps.

At this time, Luo Shun was sitting in Yan Jie's Shufang, absorbed in an interesting book.

Although Yan Jie's book collection was not large, every book was valuable, and Luo Shun had not previously read any of them, so at this moment he read with great relish, completely failing to notice that Qianqian had already entered the Shufang.

Qianqian coughed lightly, trying to attract Luo Shun's attention. However, Luo Shun seemed completely absorbed by the book's content and had no reaction to her coughing.

Qianqian smiled helplessly and coughed louder.

This time, Luo Shun finally raised his head. The moment his gaze met Qianqian's, his eyes lit up at once, as if the whole world had become bright in that instant.

Luo Shun was like a husky seeing its master; he immediately put down the book in his hand and quickly walked to Qianqian's side.

However, he still kept a certain distance, after all Qianqian was dressed in women's clothing at this time, and as a scholar, he understood the propriety between men and women.

He stood beside Qianqian, looking at her somewhat reservedly, with a joyful smile on his face.
