Why isn't she here?

Where could she go if she didn't go home?

So they've gone back to the palace?

Gu Zhixing pondered for a long time and felt that returning to the palace was the only possibility.

But why does Shen Jintang want to return to the palace?

Didn't she just come out of the palace?

Even if he left something behind or there was an emergency, he should have sent someone to let him know!

But he received nothing, as if Shen Jintang didn't want him to know she had left the palace at all.

Don't want him to know?

Gu Zhixing seemed to have thought of something.

His eyes widened slightly. Could it be that Shen Jintang saw him taking Shen Wanwan away and misunderstood?

The situation was indeed urgent. The old women of the Shen family were determined to make a big fuss and did not want to put in the effort to take Shen Wanwan away. Chongyang was carrying a lot of things, and going back and forth would definitely take up time.

He also knew Shen Jintang's personality very well; if she knew about Shen Wanwan's affairs, she would definitely be distracted and worried.

To avoid worrying her, he had no choice but to take matters into his own hands and bring her away.

However, he did not consider whether Shen Jintang would see this.

Could she possibly be jealous?

Thinking of this, Gu Zhixing's mind suddenly became chaotic. He was eager to explain, so he rushed out of the mansion.

——

Inside the palace, Shen Jintang sat alone at his desk, the book in front of him untouched for a long time.

In order to leave the palace, she took care of all the matters that could be handled in advance, and distributed the remaining tasks.

Now that she has suddenly returned to the palace, she can't find anything extra to do to pass the time.
