"Did I say something?" Mo Liancheng raised an eyebrow, looking at her with a faint expression.
"Huh? No, nothing. Well, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first." Qu Tan'er awkwardly smiled, slightly relieved, and glanced at the door. Her gaze then shifted back to Yu Hao, contemplating how to avoid him when she left through that door.
"If you reveal what happened last night, do you know what benefits you'll gain?" Mo Liancheng asked calmly.
"What would that be?" Qu Tan'er looked at him in confusion.
"You'll find out once you speak about it." Mo Liancheng replied nonchalantly.
Qu Tan'er nodded, seemingly understanding, and didn't inquire further.
But would she dare to speak? Definitely not!
Qu Tan'er was not foolish or stupid.
However, there were many things, many times, that she preferred not to think deeply about.
Living, keeping it simple, made life a bit happier.
"Your Highness, can I leave now?" It was already bright outside, and someone kind-hearted would let her go home after she had been busy all night. However, she didn't dare to expect it. What if he silenced her to keep her from talking? She knew encountering him was trouble, but why did she save him without much thought at that time?
It would have been so much better if she hadn't seen anything...
"Sure."
Sure? Was it allowed or not?
Qu Tan'er was stunned for a moment, not understanding his answer.
The next moment, she turned around directly and hurried towards the door.
However, before she could take two steps—
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
The room fell silent, and Qu Tan'er regretfully stared at the door.
Just a bit longer, and she could have left!
"My lord, the First Prince has arrived and says there is an urgent matter to discuss with you. He has already entered the front yard," the steward reported from outside.
"Ask him to go to the front hall, I will be there shortly."
"In response to Your Highness, the First Prince says it's urgent, and the guards are afraid they won't be able to stop him."
"Alright, withdraw." Mo Liancheng smiled lightly and then turned his gaze to Yu Hao, giving him a hint. Yu Hao didn't say anything and walked out of the room.
Qu Tan'er, standing aside, frowned silently, waiting for instructions.
"Aren't you leaving?" Mo Liancheng asked.
"Oh, no need to escort me." Qu Tan'er's little face was surprised. Was something good happening? Without saying anything more, she didn't even look at Mo Liancheng again and hurriedly turned to leave.
However, just as her small hand touched the door, a voice sounded behind her at the right time.
Mo Liancheng quickly dressed and calmly said, "Since he's here, let's go to the study and enjoy the show together."
"..." Qu Tan'er pursed her lips, silent and annoyed. She knew it would be like this. But would she obediently comply? At critical moments, she always had to mention some conditions. She gritted her teeth and said, "Ten times out of the mansion, and I'll act with you."
"Hmm?" Mo Liancheng raised an eyebrow and then nodded decisively, "Deal."
From the bedroom to the study, it wasn't far.
And when Mo Liancheng and Qu Tan'er arrived at the study, a voice followed from outside the door, "Master, the First Prince has arrived."
Qu Tan'er, upon hearing this, immediately glanced at Mo Liancheng, a bit curious about what he was thinking. If she hadn't seen it wrong, the layer of sweat on his forehead shouldn't be due to the fear of seeing the First Prince, right? She wouldn't think he was afraid, maybe it had to do with his injuries...
"Eighth brother." The door was pushed open and Mo Yi Huai Mo Yi Huai entered in a grand manner, casting his eyes around the room—
