After hesitating for a long time, Qin Xiaoniang finally agreed, "Alright then, hurry back..."
"Um."
Song He'er didn't mean to not tell Qin Xiaoniang, but the matter involved ancestral books, and she was afraid that Qin Xiaoniang would get angry about it, so she decided to wait until the matter was investigated before telling her.
After leaving the group, Song He'er walked towards the stream...
