After Ye Ziqing finished work at twilight hour, Su Changfeng went over to invite her: "Miss Ye, dinner is ready in the private room..."

Before he could finish his words, Ye Ziqing bowed and interrupted him: "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Su. It's getting late and I have to go home quickly." After that, he trotted out of Wangyou Pavilion.

The sky is dark, but the streets are already brightly lit, and the atmosphere of the New Year is about to emerge.

After a while, Su Changfeng caught up with Ye Ziqing again.

"Miss Ye," he called, "Please stay. It's freezing cold. I see you're wearing thin clothes, so I prepared a cloak for you. If you don't mind, put it on and continue on your journey!"

Ye Ziqing tilted her head to glance at the apricot jacquard cape on his wrist, and walked on, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Su. It's not necessary."

"Cough——" Su Changfeng started coughing violently again due to his emotional excitement because he walked too fast.

Ye Ziqing had no choice but to stop and ask with concern.

When the two of them were almost at the courtyard, Lu Qingxi had already looked out from the gate several times.

Feng Yuqi and Ye Zixi helped Feng Zihao put the food on the table. After the three of them sat down, they all stared at the courtyard gate.

They were all waiting for Ye Ziqing to come back. She had been out with the owner of Wangyou Pavilion all day since morning.

Hearing Lu Qingxi shouting "I'm back, I'm back", Feng Zihao stood up and walked to the gate. Seeing the people next to Ye Ziqing, his eyes darkened and he sighed that the boy had followed him again!

Ye Ziqing was several feet away from the courtyard gate, but Lu Qingxi came over, took Ye Ziqing's arm, and led her inside while asking her questions with concern.

Feng Zihao quickly stepped over and stopped Su Changfeng who was about to follow him in, "Thank you, Mr. Su, for sending my daughter home. Bye."

Su Changfeng met Feng Zihao's vigilant eyes and squinted his eyes towards the courtyard.

Yunxuan has gone far away with the Queen.

Touching the cloak on his wrist, Su Changfeng bowed to Feng Zihao and said, "Uncle, you're welcome."

Feng Zihao watched Su Changfeng leave and suddenly closed the gate. He felt that it was not appropriate to stay here for long.

After dinner, Ye Ziqing was about to get up to clean up the dishes, but Feng Zihao called her back in a deep voice. The others also sat there with a puzzled look on their faces.

Ye Ziqing put down her bowl and chopsticks, and heard Feng Zihao say: "Everyone, pack your bags. We will leave Haiyue City tomorrow."

"No!" "No." Ye Ziqing and Feng Yuqi said almost in unison.

The contract signed by Ye Ziqing and Wangyou Pavilion will expire in two days. Only then will she earn enough money to return Feng Yuqi and send him away.

But she didn't understand why Feng Yuqi didn't want to leave?

With doubt in her heart, Ye Ziqing turned to look at Feng Yuqi warily, and Lu Qingxi's voice rang out.

"Why are you leaving in such a hurry? Did something happen?"

"We have lived in Haiyue City for more than a month. Previously, we lived here to make it easier for you and your mother to recuperate. Now that you are all safe, for safety reasons, we should move to another place."

When Ye Ziqing saw that her father was talking to her, she realized that it was nothing serious and he was just being safe.

She felt relieved and discussed with Feng Zihao, "Father, can we wait for two days and leave after the New Year? My contract with the teahouse will expire by then, and I can get paid for it."

Feng Zihao did not answer, but looked at Feng Yuqi in confusion.

Feng Yuqi hadn't found the assassin yet, so he lied: "I promised Zixi to take her to the mountains to hunt game, but I haven't done it yet!"

Ye Zixi also helped to beg.

Feng Zihao had no choice but to agree to set off two days later, but he told everyone to start packing so that they could travel light.

Afterwards, he deliberately kept Ye Ziqing and told her not to stay outside for too long every day so as not to worry her mother.
