She's just a girl, why is daddy so serious?

Yan Zhenghai felt puzzled and collected his thoughts before asking cautiously.

"Dad, do you have something to do with that girl?"

"fine."

Yan Fan turned away in anger. The girl's death was exactly what he wanted.

Otherwise, this person knows Yan Min'er better. If he tells Hongyi everything about Yan Min'er at home, it will be worrying. There is no guarantee that the other party will do something for this sister he has never met.

Bai Yi heard the conversation between the two on the roof, left Yan's house without a trace, and headed towards the cemetery outside the city.

He practiced Qinggong all the way and soon left the city. When he was about to fly towards the forest, a familiar voice sounded.

"What's going on?"

The fifth princess felt the carriage stop, lifted the curtain and asked the maid.

"Princess, it seems we have taken the wrong road. There is no road ahead."

The fifth princess stood up and got off the carriage. She looked around and found that she was surrounded by woods and could not tell where she was.

"Let's go back the same way."

"Princess, there seems to be someone there."

The maid pointed forward with a pale face. The fifth princess followed her gaze and indeed saw a person lying on the ground.

"This place can't be a mass grave, right?" the maidservant said, protecting the Fifth Princess. "Don't be afraid, Princess. I'll go take a look."

"I'll go."

The Fifth Princess held her, feeling her body trembling slightly, and said softly, "It's okay."

The maid was about to say something when she saw a woman in plain clothes land next to the fifth princess.

The man in white suddenly appeared, startling the three of them.

"I'm here to look for someone. I have no ill intentions. There's a mass grave not far from here. Please leave as soon as possible."

The Fifth Princess became a little wary when an unfamiliar person suddenly appeared.

"Okay, there's a person lying in front. Is this the person you're looking for?"

"Thank you, young lady."

The man in white thanked him gently, but because he had other important things to do, he didn't say much to the Fifth Princess and turned to walk towards the lying person.

When they approached the person lying on the ground, the man in white judged from her clothes that this was the person the man in red was looking for.

He raised his hand and checked his breath, feeling relieved when he felt there was still breath.

Bai Yi thought to himself that it was true, this man just fainted from hunger.

"Wake up."

The man in white called out a few more times, and the person on the ground slowly opened his eyes.

"Don't talk yet, just listen to me."

"You are Yan Min'er's girl, right? I am her brother's friend."

"Young lady's brother?"

When the maid heard the word "brother", she became very excited and said, "Where is he? I want to see him. I have something for him."

"You should go eat now. Give me the food and I'll give it to him."

"Why should I trust you?"

The maid looked at Bai Yi warily, "You covered your face with a veil, and I haven't seen the young lady and her brother. How do I know you're not Yan Zhenghai's?"

The man in white described the woman in red to the maid, "Since you know your young lady has a brother, he must be someone she trusts very much. It's impossible that he doesn't know what her brother looks like."

"Of course I have seen it," the maid took out a letter from her bosom and handed it to Bai Yi, "Give this to the young lady's brother, he will understand after reading it."

"good."

Bai Yi put the letter in his arms and helped the maid to her feet. "I will take you to eat something first, and then find a carriage to take you back to your hometown. If Yan Fan knew that you were still alive in the capital, he would not let you stay."

"It's okay, I can walk on my own."

Bai Yi didn't force her, he let go of her hand and walked beside her.

"Girl, your hairpin fell off."

The fifth princess nodded to the man in white who was walking over and handed him the hairpin.

Bai Yi was originally wondering why the Fifth Princess didn't leave, but after hearing this, she understood the reason. She stepped forward to take the hairpin, but she didn't expect the Fifth Princess to hold it tightly.

"I also have a hairpin like this, young lady."

The Fifth Princess stared at the hairpin she was holding. The wind lifted the hem of her skirt. The two of them stood looking at each other. Bai Yi noticed the sadness that flashed across her face and said softly, "If you like it, I'll give it to you."

"No need," the Fifth Princess released her hand, "Although the hairpins are the same, their meanings are different."

Bai Yi stared at her face, feeling a little sad. "I guess this hairpin was given to you by a very important person?"

"It was given by my mother, but unfortunately she passed away not long after I was born."

"I see."

The bitterness in Bai Yi's heart disappeared completely, and he held the hairpin tightly in his hand.

"Actually, this hairpin of mine is also very important to me."

The Fifth Princess suddenly laughed, "Just now the young lady said she would give it to me, but it turned out to be just a casual remark. If I really wanted it, wouldn't that be stealing someone else's love?"

Her smile dazzled Bai Yi's eyes. It was exactly the same as before. Bai Yi was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and said seriously:

"I really want to give it to a girl. She will look great in it."

"Is she not feeling well?"

The princess interrupted their conversation, and Bai Yi remembered the person he had picked up.

"Girl, help her into my carriage. She can't move like this."

After weighing the pros and cons, Bai Yi felt that this was indeed safer and thanked him sincerely.

…

Several people entered the city together. Bai Yi found a place to buy food for the maid, and after she finished eating, he hired a carriage to take her out of the capital.

After everything was settled, Bai Yi returned to the palace.

Seeing him coming back, Hongyi frowned and asked, "Is he dead?"

The man in white shook his head, took out the letter and handed it to the man in red.

"Your sister gave it to you. I've already sent her away from the capital."
