Qiao Qiu: What exactly is my gender?
Ji Rufeng: I also want to know what my gender is.
Qiao Qiu: Brother, do you want to question life?
Ji Rufeng: I'm already questioning it.....

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Qiao Qiu and Qiao Dong have reached marriageable age, with only a few days left until the talent show.
That day, Qiao Qiu disguised herself as an ordinary-looking maid and slipped out of the Prime Minister's residence without taking anyone with her.
On the bustling West Street, the cries of vendors filled the air. Qiao Qiu stood with her hands behind her back, her large eyes sparkling like stars, looking left and right, in a very good mood.
After walking through two streets, Qiao Qiu entered a small alley and suddenly disappeared. The men who had followed her wandered around aimlessly for a while, exchanged glances, and then dispersed.
From the alleyway of East Street, a young woman emerged, her long, light blue dress reaching her ankles, a pale blue shawl draped over her arm, her figure graceful and her waist slender. Her hair was styled in a cross bun, a crystal headdress still adorning her forehead, and her face veiled. Even with only her large eyes visible, one could tell she was a beauty.
Her appearance drew frequent glances from people on the street, but she did not stay there for long before entering a teahouse.
This tea house is the famous 'Mingxiangxuan'. Although the name is simple, it has a long history. It not only occupies a large area, but also has many good places to drink tea. Most importantly, it is specially designed to serve distinguished guests.
As soon as the young woman entered Mingxiangxuan, the waiter came to greet her and soon led her up to the third floor.
Upstairs there are several private rooms, all separated by screens, with sheer curtains separating the entrances and exits. Each room is located by a window.
The young lady chose the innermost private room, and the waiter immediately went to brew a pot of fine tea before leaving.
Once everyone was alone, she removed her veil, revealing herself to be Qiao Qiu, who had shaken off her pursuers.
She thought that if she disguised herself normally, there wouldn't be any major problems, but people still followed her. Luckily, she had reincarnated so many times before and learned a lot, otherwise she might not have been able to shake them off so easily.
Qiao Qiu went through all that trouble just to see a show, and she hoped it wouldn't disappoint her.
After drinking half a cup of tea, a familiar figure appeared on the street below. Qiao Qiu smiled slightly. Here he comes.
