Su Wan stood up, leaning against a nearby tree. She picked up the defensive gun from the ground and put it away, as she had promised to help the family of divine doctors retrieve it. Only after that did she hop on one foot to Bai Zhiyi's side.
"Miss, why do we have to go to the General's Mansion again?"
“I’m going to see His Highness. I refuse to believe that His Highness will ignore me forever…” Bai Zhiyi stood straight and said confidently, “As the ancients said, sincerity can move mountains. Once I get rid of that brat surnamed Su, I’ll have my parents propose marriage.”
Seeing that Bai Zhiyi was delirious but still thinking about Wei Jingzhuo, Su Wan could only agree, "What Miss says is true. Master and Madam said..."
Before she could finish speaking, a gust of wind rose in the woods, rustling the leaves.
Bai Zhiyi shuddered and turned around, saying, "Oh no, His Highness's entourage is here! I'm not ready yet! Where's my mask? Where's my mask?"
Su Wan remembered that Xie Maoliang had kicked Bai Zhiyi's mask by the woods, so it must have fallen there. She quickly said, "Miss, don't worry, I'll go get it right away."
Bai Zhiyi knelt on the ground, covering her face with her arms, and said, "What are you staring at? Go get it!"
Su Wan arrived at the edge of the woods and found the clown mask in the grass. Bai Zhiyi couldn't wait any longer and followed her out.
"Give it to me quickly!" Bai Zhiyi immediately stretched out her arms to grab the mask as soon as she saw it.
The mask bounced between her arms and fell to the ground. She knelt down and tried to catch it with both arms, but couldn't hold it with either. She finally managed to get it under control, managed to press the mask to her face, but it fell off again.
"What happened to my hands?" Bai Zhiyi lay on the ground, burying her face in her arms and crying. "It's all over now. His Highness is going to see how ugly I look."
Su Wan sighed, picked up the clown mask, and said, "Miss, have you forgotten? Your hands are frostbitten. Let me help you put it on."
She helped Bai Zhiyi up and put the clown mask on her. Only then did Bai Zhiyi stop crying and say, "I need to change my clothes too. I can't wear this to see His Highness."
Su Wan had a sudden inspiration and said, "Miss, look up. It's nighttime. You're wearing pajamas."
Bai Zhiyi said, "Is this pajamas? It's too ugly, I don't like it."
Su Wan said, "Please bear with it. Didn't we say we have to see His Highness early tomorrow morning? Staying up late will give you dark circles under your eyes. His Highness won't like that."
Bai Zhiyi looked up at the night sky and said, "I just saw it, I need to go to sleep quickly."
She leaned against Su Wan's chest, closed her eyes, and actually fell asleep.
Su Wan breathed a sigh of relief, took out her bamboo whistle and blew it, and the giant eagle descended from the sky. Su Wan had Bai Zhiyi lie down on the ground, then climbed onto the giant eagle's back and blew the whistle again. The giant eagle gently gripped Bai Zhiyi's waist with its claws and lifted the two of them into the air.
"Sleep well, Miss Bai," Su Wan said, gazing at the southern night sky. "When you wake up, you will see A-Jin."
