"I say, little Yuanzhi, you gave up the great chance to severely punish Pei Yunyan and Xiao Yichen, and you're making a big fuss with the imperial edict to find someone—it's really not worth it. Tell me, I can definitely get that person back for you." Gu Rongjin said with a hint of regret.

Translation: "Senior Sister isn't angry; she's worried about you." Mu Yuanzhi rubbed his head, "This way, if you want to stay, you can, but you must promise me that you'll listen to no one but me."

Translation: "Qilin, don't say that; he… he's on our side, he's saved me many times." Mu Yuanzhi also didn't know how to put it.

Translation: Qilin's face turned grave: "Who dares to poison the Grand Empress Dowager? Let's rush into the palace to save her!"

Translation: "It's Pei Yunxi." Mu Yuanzhi, without worrying that Gu Rongjin was present, told Qilin all the grudges and gratitude from her past life.

Translation: "Come back!" Mu Yuanzhi hurriedly grabbed him, "I told you this only so you'd know; you mustn't blindly believe anything those people say, it's not meant to make you act impulsively—Qilin, what did you just promise me?"

He now completely regards Pei Shangling as an enemy, and he utterly despises how he just mistook an enemy for a brother—so lacking in discernment; from now on he must be more careful.

"No way! You can't confront him directly!" Mu Yuanzhi panicked at once.

We must not let Pei Shangling hold a grudge against the Qilin; he's capable of anything!

"What's there to be afraid of?" the Qilin didn't understand.

Gu Rongjin also didn't understand: "Right, little Yuanzhi, when did you become such a coward? You've gone head-to-head with your fourth brother several times before—this is a perfect revenge opportunity!"
