Cui Yun'er said, "Then it's just that we're not meant to be!"
The two of them walked out of the painted boat together.
Fang Ningzhu, who had been hiding in the corner, slowly came out and stared at Su Xuerong's back in deep thought.
The backyard of Jinxiu Garden.
Chen Siyi had already arranged for the old princess to rest for the afternoon, and went to the room where Cui was resting.
