Su Liang returned home as it was getting dark, and Yang Yu was preparing dinner.
"You're back?" Yang Yu put down the spoon and turned around to greet him, "Are you all right?"
"I'm fine," said Su Liang with a smile. "For now, someone is safe. But the next part of the show is more critical. I hope he can hold on."
Su Liang washed his hands and cooked with Yang Yu, telling him what happened after she went to the palace.
Yang Yu marveled at Su Liang's intelligence. "You're amazing! You managed to kill without a trace!"
