This also makes Qingque's journey more smooth.

"Princess, I have something important to report." Qingque quickly climbed the stairs and spoke towards the house without even having time to calm his breathing.

The next moment, footsteps were heard in the room approaching.

"What's the matter?" Xirui's voice was heard at the same time as the door was opened.

All the servants in the room were sent away, and now she had to open the door herself.

"Where did you come back from? How come..." Xirui took a quick glance and found that Qingque was in an abnormal condition.

Then he looked at the little girl he had never seen before following her.

Xirui's heart became heavy.

"Come in and talk."

Outside is not a good place to talk.

Xirui turned around first and wanted to call the person in for questioning.

But Qingque didn't care about these.

Taking two quick steps to avoid the little girl behind him, Qingque put the jade token in Xirui's hand and whispered in her ear, "Someone is holding a jade token at the back door asking to see the princess."

Xirui was startled and turned to look at Qingque, "Did you say what happened?"

Although he was filled with doubt and uncertainty, he did not dare to delay his actions for even a moment.

With the help of Qingque's cover, Xirui took out his own jade token and put it together with the one he had just taken.

I saw that the two jade plates, with the sides carrying seal patterns, were facing each other, and were tightly fitted together without any mistakes.

Seeing this, Xirui's last glimmer of hope disappeared.

Without asking any more questions, he grabbed Qingque and walked out.

However, when he passed the little girl outside the door, he paused. After thinking about it, Xirui instructed Yunya, who was on guard, to take her to the next room first.

Everything will have to wait until she goes to the back door and meets that person before making a final decision.

Xirui was worried, but he was concerned about Yinzhi and others, so he didn't dare to ask questions through the system.

I had no choice but to walk quickly to the back door.

"Princess!" A female voice filled with surprise and relief sounded in the distance.

Suddenly, the silence around was broken.

Xirui was so shocked that she stopped in her tracks.

"Who is there?" Qingque hurriedly took two steps forward and protected Xirui firmly behind him.

"Please forgive me, Princess. I was reckless and offended you." His loud shout frightened Xirui and his servant so much that they were on guard.

Mrs. Ma, who was guarding the back door, suddenly felt a chill rushing to the top of her head.

I was already feeling uneasy because I thought I had discovered something private, and now I felt even more uneasy.

"Princess, please calm down." Fearing that she would be punished by her master if she made a mistake, Ma Po kowtowed hard. She only wished there was a crack on the ground so that she could hide inside.

What surprised her was that Xirui didn't care about it so much.

Qingque even directly told her to leave in a cold voice.

Mrs. Ma felt as if she were reborn in an instant, and her heart seemed to be floating in mid-air, unable to settle down for a long time.

"I'm leaving, I'm leaving." Not daring to delay any longer, Ma Po didn't even have time to figure out which way to go. She kept saying goodbye and headed straight into the ornamental bamboo grove on the side.

It fully demonstrates what it means to be in a panic and have no choice but to act.

Xirui silently gave Qingque a wink, asking her to stay where she was.

I continued walking towards the door without stopping.

The commotion that old lady Ma made just now was not big, but it was not small either.

At least it has attracted the master and servant beside the carriage outside the door.

"Xirui! Are you okay?" This unprecedented address was enough to show his current anxious mood.

The person who came was Xue Jing.

As soon as Xirui stepped onto the stairs, he was embraced by the oncoming wind.

"You...what are you doing?" Xirui was caught off guard by his action.

Sensing his drastic emotional fluctuations at the moment, Xirui raised her hand slightly, not knowing whether to push him away or not.

"What's wrong with you?" She didn't understand. When they separated in the daytime, this man was fine. Why did he become like this now?

What exactly happened?

"Cough, cough, cough, cough..." Qingque, who was guarding under the corridor, felt that he had suffered a great shock, and the coughing sound caused by choking on saliva spread all around without any concealment.

Especially the two people hugging each other at the door.

"You...calm down first." Reminded by the cough from behind, Xirui suddenly realized how inappropriate their actions at the moment were.

The parts of their bodies that were in contact suddenly felt as if they were burned by fire, causing Xirui to subconsciously reach out and push the other person away.

"Huh~you...what's wrong with you? What happened?" Not wanting to irritate him, Xirui spoke in a gentle voice.

Unexpectedly, Xue Jing did not answer her question immediately, but asked a similar question to hers, "Are you okay?"

Hearing this question again was enough to prove that Xirui had not misheard just now, but that this was indeed Xue Jing's question.

Now Xirui was even more confused.

"I'm fine, what could happen?" Who told him that something happened to him?

What does this mean so late at night?

"I...I listen..." When the words came to his lips, Xue Jing looked at the people following him and Xirui, and stopped abruptly.

There was obvious panic in his tone, and even though the other person was pushed away, his eyes were still fixed on Xirui.

It was as if he had to confirm with his own eyes that she was unharmed before he could feel at ease.

Xirui frowned, keenly noticing his abnormality.

I took him and walked to the side.

After avoiding the sight of the two people behind him, he asked softly, "Did someone tell you that something happened to me?"

Because he was worried that something happened to her, Xue Jing came to her house without caring about anything else.

Xirui didn't know what to say at this moment.

In fact, she was no less nervous than Xue Jing.

"Xie Xingyu said that he suddenly couldn't contact Liuliu, and he couldn't even sense Liuliu's existence. I was worried that something had happened on your side, so I wanted to ask him to help investigate, but the result..." Having said that, Xue Jing couldn't help but take a deep breath before he slowly calmed himself down.

"It wasn't long before I couldn't even contact him."

"Before completely losing contact, the last words he left me were that there might be unusual changes in the Huang family's mansion and to evacuate carefully." It was because of these words that Xue Jing ignored everything else and insisted on seeing Xirui.

"Although I don't know what the change he's talking about is, but now they have lost contact with us. I can't rest assured unless I come to see you in person."

If he didn't know it was impossible, he would even want to take Xirui away from the Huang family first.
