Princess Sheng Ping was also waiting for Su Yingxue. There were several dishes laid out on her table, and when Su Yingxue arrived, she had just finished her meal.
Sheng Ping stood up and greeted her with a smile.

Su Yingxue nodded. "In that case, Princess, can you tell me now?"
Sheng Ping invited her to sit by the bedside for their conversation.
