Yingyue was startled. It was her master! But she dared not look around. Her master was in the shadows at this time because he did not want to appear. She could not expose her master.

"Alright, I'll go right away." Yingyue clasped her hands in acceptance and left.

After Yingyue left, Ji Jiuying looked at Wuxin: "Wuxin, was the investigation into my mother handled by you all along?"

"Reporting to Mistress, no, it was Longyang at first, but later I was replaced due to certain events. However, since you lost your memory, I was called back."

Suddenly remembering something, he added, "By the way, mistress, regarding the investigation of the madam's affairs and the Soul-Locking Needle, it seems there's a hidden hand at play. Every time I find even the slightest clue, it gets wiped out by someone in the shadows."

Ji Jiuying sat down, frowned, and tapped her fingers on the table repeatedly, as if she was thinking about something.

a long time.

"I understand about this matter. I will personally investigate it in a few days."

"By the way, Wuxin, do you know where A-Yue went?"

Wu Xin shook his head. "I don't know."

"Okay, you go ahead and get busy." Ji Jiuying pouted.

"yes."

After leaving without a thought, the courtyard returned to peace. Ji Jiuying stood up and looked around. The courtyard was very large, and Ji Jiuying strolled around slowly. Everywhere there were carved beams and painted rafters. After passing through a semi-circular archway, the view opened up before her. On both sides were some exotic flowers and plants. Not far away, a winding stream passed under the corridor and flowed into a small pond.

An octagonal pavilion stands in the middle of a small pond, with white curtains hanging vertically under the eaves, swaying freely in the wind and surrounded by water mist, making it feel like entering a fairyland.

A tall figure was faintly visible behind the white curtain. Ji Jiuying's eyes flickered slightly, and she let out a soft murmur.

"Ah Yue?"
