"Let's go."
Pei Jingtai took one last look at the bright white gate of the Fang family, closed his eyes, and slowly turned to leave.
The Rongguo Duke's Mansion.
Shen Mingrong was leaning against the large blue pillow on the kang by the window, looking listless. Qin Mama was giving her some medicine and said with concern, "Madam, you really need to take better care of your health. The Fang family is no good. You shouldn't worry too much about them.

Lu Ming appeared at the doorway, and her clear, crisp voice drifted in.
Shen Mingrong propped himself up and said to Granny Qin with a smile, "Go and tell the kitchen to make almond cheese that the young lady likes."
