"Miss, rest assured, Leng Lian will definitely keep a watch."
Leng Lian cupped her hands, agreeing to it.
Only then did Ruyan leave the Dragon Palace with Luo Shunchen, heading to the Imperial Household to find something to eat.
The Imperial Household manages many affairs.
Anything trivial within the palace is under their control. To eat, naturally, one must seek out the head of the kitchen.
Tonight, because Ruyan and Luo Shunchen entered the palace together, Pei Xi dismissed all nearby people to prevent others from interrupting their conversation.
Thus...
The news of Pei Xi's death was naturally kept sealed within.
"Ruyan, still angry?"
Luo Shunchen held her hand and found it somewhat cold.
"No longer. There's nothing to be angry about; he's dead and not worth wasting my spirit on."
Ruyan shook her head, staring into the distant darkness, an indescribable remoteness in her expression.
