"She really is just a little girl, so easily frightened." The Ninth Prince chuckled.
Guo Luoluo glared at him: "Alright, why aren't you going back? Wandering around my garden so late at night, no wonder people misunderstand."
"What misunderstanding? What could she possibly misunderstand? What could she possibly know?" The Ninth Prince shouted, pointing at Heyue with disdain.
"You know she doesn't understand? Then why did you deliberately scare her?" Guo Luoluo's pretty face darkened slightly, revealing a hint of shrewishness.
"Alright, alright, you're something else. It's just that you finally found someone fun to tease. Fine, I'm leaving. She's all yours now." The Ninth Prince waved his hand, glanced at Heyue, and turned to leave.
Heyue gritted her teeth inwardly. This Ninth Prince was deliberately trying to scare her. How despicable!

A maidservant came over and helped her up, leading her back the way she came.
Before long, they returned to the bottom of the attic.
He Yue felt the road was too short, but she had no choice. This was not a good time to talk. Just as she was about to take her leave, someone ran down from the pavilion and came to Guo Luoluo's side, hurriedly bowing: "Princess, the princess of Zhaojia's mansion has wet skirt. This servant has someone take Princess Zhaojia to the side room."
Heyue recognized the maid she had just seen, her expression changed, and she asked nervously, "What happened to my sister?"
