"What's wrong with you? Why are you so agitated?"
Leng Youyou watched Bai Xiao's reaction with a smile, her eyes flickering slightly, her tone carrying a hint of probing: "Judging from your reaction, I thought your character had something to do with the eunuch played by Lu Xiaoyao~"
"What could possibly be the connection? I'm just surprised. 'Lu Changfu' is the chief eunuch by the emperor's side. Can Lu Xiaoyao really pull it off?"
Bai Xiao smiled faintly, shaking her head as if nothing had happened. She wiped the water from the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, avoiding Leng Youyou's gaze, and said, "However, in my character's memories, someone reported a few days ago that Lu Changfu went to the Cold Palace during the day.

This also made Bai Xiao realize that she really needed to find an opportunity to ask Lu Xiaoyao about the situation.
Seeing the two of them, Mingmei chuckled softly, glanced at the sky outside the window, and this time she was actually looking forward to nightfall. That way, players should come to her door, right?
