As Zhao Shu watched his dashing figure disappear into the distance, she knew she would never forget this young man who had once said, "I have come here to leave a lasting legacy."
Many years later, she asked him why he wanted to learn from Jiang Taigong. He said that everyone thought Jiang Taigong was like a god, and no one could surpass him, but he insisted on being the one who surpassed Jiang Taigong.
So she laughed at him, saying it was so boring to compare yourself to a dead man.
"Mr. Huo, please wait." Zhao Shu stopped him. "Mr. Huo, are you aware of the Crown Prince's disappearance?"
Huo Baichuan stared at Zhao Shu for at least two minutes. Just as Zhao Shu was feeling extremely uncomfortable, he gave a fake laugh twice. "Little Princess, do you know that it makes me very uncomfortable to talk to you so maturely? Girls should have a girl's shyness, and children should have a child's vitality. You're so gloomy. What are you trying to do? Try to make me feel bad?"
Zhao Shu: "...No, Mr. Huo, I'm speaking to you seriously. My father is going to find the Crown Prince tomorrow, and I hope you can help him. I only have one father." She finished speaking quickly, afraid that Huo Baichuan would interrupt her.

If you mess with me, you will die a terrible death. If you don't believe me, you can try. I'm not one of those old fogies. I will not only make you die a terrible death, but I will also make you die in a way that is unprecedented and unparalleled. Future generations may even write stories about you that are more pitiful than Meng Jiangnu."
Zhao Shu was surprised. The willow branch had come too suddenly. She hadn't even seen how it got into Huo Baichuan's hands. He moved too fast. If it had been a knife, she believed she would have been dead just now.
“Mr. Huo, I know you must have a way. My difficulty is to protect my father. According to the agreement, you must make protecting my father your ultimate goal.”
