"film."
Xuanyuan Che spoke, his voice low and magnetic.
A burly middle-aged man immediately stepped forward and bowed his head respectfully.
"What are your commands, Your Majesty?"
Xuanyuan Che's gaze became sharp, as if it could penetrate people's hearts.
"You stay and protect Chen Xiaoru."
He paused and continued,
"Make sure she's safe. If anything seems out of the ordinary, notify me immediately."
Ying was slightly startled, then responded respectfully:
"yes."
Xuanyuan Che nodded with satisfaction, then turned to the other secret guards.
"We will set off back to the palace immediately."
Xuanyuan Che glanced back at the house where Chen Xiaoru was, a subtle hint of tenderness flashing across his eyes. Then, he calmed down and mounted his Zhuifeng.
The sound of horse hooves gradually faded away, and Ying watched Xuanyuan Che leave. His eyes were alert, carefully observing the surrounding environment, looking for a suitable hiding place.

The system was silent for a moment, seemingly assessing Chen Xiaoru's condition and risk. After a moment, it spoke again, its tone somewhat softer, but still filled with worry:
"Okay, host. But you must understand that time is running out. If you continue to slack off like this, the consequences will be very serious."
Chen Xiaoru didn't answer, but just wrapped the quilt tighter. Her breathing gradually became steady, and she seemed to have really fallen asleep.
The system waited a moment longer, confirming that Chen Xiaoru had no intention of responding, before reluctantly stopping its persuasion. But in the silent room, its low, warning voice still echoed: "Host, I hope you won't regret it..."
