Su Xingze returned to the Shen Residence, and after bathing and changing his clothes, he headed for the Princess Residence.
Upon hearing him identify himself, the gatekeeper of the Princess Residence promptly ushered him inside with respect, "Young Master Su, please follow me."
Su Xingze noticed that the gatekeeper let him in directly without needing to announce him. He gave the gatekeeper an extra look, nodded, and entered the Princess Residence.
As the gatekeeper led him in, he offered an explanation, "You are Lady Su Qi's elder brother. The Princess specifically instructed us this morning that if you come, I should just lead you in."
Su Xingze nodded.
The gatekeeper led Su Xingze to the reception room, the housekeeper rushed over upon hearing the news, engaged in courtesy, and ordered the maidservants to prepare tea and water, warmly welcoming Su Xingze.
