"After the prince returns, his wedding will be soon. I should prepare something to express my gratitude."
"Miss, there's no need to rush to prepare these things. The Prince will probably prepare them for you when the time comes."
Xue Yurou scoffed, "Who prepares gifts for their guests on their own wedding day?"
“Emm…” The maid didn’t know what to say.
"I'll think about this myself, you don't need to worry about it. Just help me prepare whatever I need when the time comes."
"yes."
And at this moment...
"You must be the Regent's bodyguard."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Ruo, who was in disguise, began to suspect something. She grabbed Yuan Ruo by the throat and demanded, "Who are you? How do you know my identity?"
Qimuge's face turned ashen as he tried to explain, "You! Don't worry, I'm the princess's friend. I guessed for a long time before I dared to be sure you were his."
Yuan Ruo released her hand, pointed at her and said, "I recognize you. I'm giving you a chance to explain, but if you lie, you will definitely face eternal damnation in the future."

Yuan Ru hummed in agreement and asked, "Then how did you know I was here and hadn't left?"
"To be honest, I saw it all from the corner that day. Now you can believe me, right? If I wanted to betray you, I would have done so after the Regent left."
"Alright, there's still no news about the princess's condition. I'll let you know when I have any news."
Qimuge sighed, "The princess has truly had a difficult life; I feel so sorry for her..."
"There's nothing to say about this now, let's wait for good news."
"Okay, then I'll head back. If you encounter any difficulties, just let me know, and I'll be happy to help."
"Okay, thank you."
After saying that, Qimuge left.
Yuan Ruo would still keep his distance from her, because he knew that someone as lazy as Su Lixia could not possibly make such a close friend in such a short time.
"Wow." Lin Ziwen exclaimed as he looked at the crabs he had caught, "I didn't expect the crabs to be so plump at this time of year."
"With less food, you get to eat more. How can you not gain weight?" the person complained.
"The way you're saying that makes it sound like we've eaten all the crabs in this area."
The man shrugged: "That's hard to say."
