“Young lady, it’s not a decent thing to eavesdrop on others’ conversation. If you have something to say, you may come in and spit it out,” the Divine Witch, who had fallen silent for a long while, suddenly said, which startled Lin Mengya.

Then Lin Mengya realized that she had long been discovered.

Between staying and escaping, Lin Mengya, who had always been reluctant to give in, chose to face the Divine Witch.

When she pushed the thin door open, she was at a loss of what to do at the sight of the scene in the back hall.

Especially when she saw the Divine Witch’s face, she even froze at the door.

“What’s wrong? Did I scare you?” The Divine Witch asked in the soft voice she had heard outside just now.

However, she had thought the Divine Witch was an aloof beauty. Unexpectedly, the Divine Witch did not get up because she had no calves.

The Divine Witch had actually lost her calves!

The furnishings in the room were very simple, just including a screen, a table, some chairs and stools.

Nevertheless, Lin Mengya found the Divine Witch’s face more shocking than all of this.

Although the passage of time endowed her face with maturity, her face, which was still beautiful and gentle, looked exactly like that of Baizhi, Lin Mengya’s maid.

“Young lady, who are you?”

Seeing that Lin Mengya was stunned for a moment, the Divine Witch asked her lightly instead of getting angry.

“Reverend, I came here by accident. It’s the Witch Empress’s birthday today, so I hung out with my friends and wandered around the shrine on a whim. Please forgive me,” Lin Mengya answered.

She was not that stupid to ask directly about the relationship between the Divine Witch and Baizhi. Instead, she tried to smooth things over with the excuse they had discussed beforehand.

She was just astonished that the two of them looked alike despite their completely different airs.

The Divine Witch in front of her was noble and aloof. In particular, her black eyes seemed to be able to see through people’s hearts, which aroused people’s boundless reverence towards her and allowed no blasphemy against her.

Meanwhile, Baizhi, Lin Mengya’s maid who was smart, lovely, gluttonous and muddleheaded, was nothing like the Divine Witch except for her face.

Could it be that Baizhi and the Divine Witch were related?

After thinking for a while, Lin Mengya denied this possibility.

It was unlikely to be true. Her parents bought Baizhi to keep her company.

Her parents had never been to the Lieyun Empire before. How could Baizhi be related to the Divine Witch in front of her?

They probably just looked alike.

Lin Mengya tried to convince herself, but she couldn’t help staring at the Divine Witch’s face.

Obviously, Lin Mengya’s gaze, which was not completely undisguised but could not be ignored, confused the Divine Witch a little.

The Divine Witch looked at her with her cold eyes, but didn’t say anything.

Perhaps although the Divine Witch found it strange that a girl paid special attention to her appearance, she was embarrassed to say anything.

“Since you came here by accident, you may quickly go to meet up with your companions. This is the shrine of the Divine Witch, so you’d better not wander around lest you offend others.” The Divine Witch did not make a fuss about it, but let Lin Mengya go easily after warning her lightly.

“Okay, thank you for your understanding, Reverend.” Lin Mengya did not dare to stay any longer and got out of the Divine Witch’s room respectfully after bowing.

The Divine Witch was extraordinary indeed.

Lin Mengya looked back at the hall behind her, thinking she would definitely make another visit if she had a chance.

Then she strolled out of the Divine Witch Shrine. Fortunately, because of what had happened before, there were still lots of people in the outer courtyard of the Divine Witch Shrine.

So she could get out and mingle with the crowd without being discovered.

Outside the Divine Witch Shrine, Xiaoyu looked impatient.

However, when he saw her, his face suddenly lit up. After waving his hand at her, he charged through the crowd to her.

“Where’s Baisu?” She asked.

After looking around, she failed to find Baisu, but saw that Xiaoyu, whose face darkened, seemed to be upset.

“What’s wrong?” She asked in confusion.

After looking around, Xiaoyu hurriedly pulled her to a corner outside.

Then he said, “She has been taken away by Uncle Lie’s men. It’s all my fault for forgetting Uncle Lie once told me that Baisu was not allowed to visit the Divine Witch Shrine. But she should be fine. Let’s go back now.”

Xiaoyu must have been rebuked by one of Wanyan Lie’s men, otherwise, he would not have been so dejected.

Nodding, Lin Mengya was curious about who dared to rebuke Xiaoyu.

All of Wanyan Lie’s men she had met were respectful to Xiaoyu.

It seemed that someone became the bane of Xiaoyu.

In the past half a year, probably plenty of interesting things had happened.

After fulfilling the mission and making sure Baisu was safe and sound, Lin Mengya and Wanyan Yu walked briskly, followed by lots of Wanyan Lie’s men who mingled with the crowd and watched over them at a distance to ensure their safety.

At this moment, it was already midnight, and the pedestrians decreased slightly so that Lin Mengya and Xiaoyu strolled around a lot of stalls.

Both of them were ravishing, young and smiling, so after they took a lap around, their arms were piled with lots of stuff, half of which were bought by them and the other half were given to them for free.

“I’m a little hungry. Let’s find a place to eat something.” Lin Mengya suggested.

After walking for half a day, they were not in a hurry to go back.

Madame Jingrou and the Emperor were much less strict with them.

The two of them were presumably enjoying their sweet time at the moment, so they had no time to care about what they did.

“Okay,” Xiaoyu said and waved his hand.

Some of his men hidden in the crowd immediately came up and took the things from them.

However, those guards seemed to be a little helpless.

They were sent to protect Lin Mengya and Xiaoyu, but unexpectedly, they became the attendants of the two of them.

Lin Mengya held Xiaoyu’s hand and walked on the long street.

The air here was filled with the soft fragrance of rosa multiflora. The lanterns of various colors hanging in the air dispelled the darkness in the night sky and made the long street vaguer and more romantic.

On both sides of the street, there were stalls selling all kinds of trinkets. In addition to the stalls selling jewelry, velvet flowers and cosmetics for women, there were also plenty of stalls selling masks, lanterns, sugar figures and clay statues.

They were not particularly expensive, but very exquisite.

One and another children with masks ran past Lin Mengya and Xiaoyu while playing with lanterns.

Everyone looked joyful, as if all their displeasure were gone today.

In the past, Lin Mengya rarely had such an opportunity to hang out. In particular, after she returned to this time and space, her only entertainment was amusing the baby and playing with the tiger and the wolf at home.

Time flew, and she had been out for half a year. She was just wondering how those people she cared about had been and if they kept missing her as she missed them.

“Sister, why are you crying?” Wanyan Yu, who had just bought a fish made of syrup, turned around, only to see the tears in Lin Mengya’s eyes, so he asked.

“I… I’m fine.” As Lin Mengya said, she wiped her eyes and touched a drop of warm tear.

She was stunned. It was probably because this rare scene had moved her.

“Are you missing your family? To be honest, I also miss them terribly. Although the Lieyun Empire is my motherland, my first home is in the Jin State. When I first came back, I missed you all very much. Although I have my parents in the imperial palace, the joyful time I had in the Liuxin Courtyard with you all is what I want. I miss you all, especially you,” Xiaoyu said.

He turned his head and stared at Lin Mengya seriously.

They hadn’t met each other for just a short period, but Xiaoyu had grown from a half-grown child into what he was now.

Lin Mengya touched his face. Every time she saw his silver-white hair, she felt distressed.

She held him gently in her arms. She was Xiaoyu’s first family member, and so was Xiaoyu for her.

“Sorry, Xiaoyu,” she said.

She was keenly aware that it was destined that Xiaoyu, the Ninth Prince of the Lieyun Empire, would not stay with her forever as a carefree childe.

But she was also aware that she was more or less the reason why Xiaoyu made this decision.

“Sister, I…” Xiaoyu said, holding Lin Mengya’s slender and soft body tightly in return.

With a feeling of tightness in the chest, he, whose mind was occupied with a multitude of thoughts, had no idea how to express his feeling.

“Well, let’s go and eat something. I wonder if there are wontons here. I’m really hungry,” Lin Mengya said.

It was destined that he could not maintain such a weak posture for too long.

Lin Mengya released her grip and showed a smile as before.

Xiaoyu stared at her face, and after a moment of silence, he finally showed a gentle expression to her as before.

He had to take it slow with their relationship, as he absolutely could not scare his sister.

“I know there’s a shop selling rosa multiflora pastries ahead. Let’s go and have some,” he said.

Then he took his sister’s hand and walked to the pastry shop with ease.

No one noticed that not long after they left, a person under a black cloak stood where they had stood just now with a complicated expression on his face.

There seemed to be the fragrance of herbs mixed with the fragrance of rosa multiflora given off by Lin Mengya lingering in the air.

Long Tianyu clenched his fists. If he did not guess wrong, Xiaoyu seemed to have feelings for Lin Mengya.

He might not care about others, but Xiaoyu was definitely different from others for Lin Mengya.

It seemed that he should find an opportunity to resume his relationship with Lin Mengya as soon as possible.

He would never give away her heart to anyone!

“Master, our men have returned,” one of his men quietly appeared behind him and said.

Long Tianyu took a deep look at the two of them. He had followed them for the whole night. Although he had learned about her recent situation, he could do nothing else for the time being.

“Let’s go back,” he said.
