Ah Hong froze for a moment, then slowly embraced the girl in his arms, "I don't know when I can make amends and achieve success. You don't have to wait for me. If you meet a suitable man, you can marry him first."

Gu Jingyu raised her eyes to look at Ah Hong and said, "Then can you achieve success and fame as soon as possible? Don't make me wait too long."

Ah Hong nodded and said, "Okay."

Gu Jingyu stood on tiptoe and kissed Ah Hong on the lips. Ah Hong reached out and touched his own lips. His whole face turned red. He quickly pushed Gu Jingyu away and left through the window.

Gu Jingyu's crisp laughter came from behind.

Ah Hong looked back at Gu Jingyu's smiling face and waved goodbye to her.

In Qingfeng Garden.

Yun Xiangye and Gu Yan were teaching Nuonuo how to read and write.

Nuonuo is quite smart. She can write the word "cloud" by following the example and also knows quite a few other characters.

Gu Yan chuckled and said, "She is indeed my daughter. She can write her own name at the age of three."

Yun Xiangye said, "Nuonuo inherited my intelligence."

Gu Yan smiled and said, "It's up to you. Even my difficult temper is up to you. Who knows how much suffering her husband will have to endure in the future."

Hearing this, Yun Xiangye reached out and twisted the flesh on Gu Yan's narrow waist. Gu Yan, feeling the pain, held Yun Xiangye's hand and said, "I was wrong. Your Excellency, the Crown Prince's Consort, please be magnanimous and spare me."

Yun Xiangye let Gu Yan go only after he begged for mercy.

After Nuonuo left, Gu Yan held Yun Xiangye in his arms and said, "My father sent a letter by carrier pigeon saying he has found His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. They are rushing back and will probably reach Chang'an in less than two weeks."

Yun Xiangye frowned slightly and said, "They actually found it so quickly. When Your Highness returns, I'll have to endure some physical pain."

Gu Yan said: "Thinking about it carefully, my sister can finally be free."
