After entering the Eastern Palace, Yan Huisheng went straight to his study, while Su Rong headed towards Qiuying's courtyard.
As she approached the gate, she saw three figures emerging from within. Little Qiuying dashed out the fastest, exclaiming cheerfully, "Sister Su."
Su Rong greeted her with a smile, "Little Qiuying, we haven't seen each other for a while, and it seems like you've grown taller."
Qiuying, seemingly wanting to embrace Su Rong but hesitant to do so, responded with a laugh, "Really, Sister Su? Have I really grown taller?"
"Yes," Su Rong bent over to hold her close, "You truly have grown taller."
After holding Qiuying for a while, she released her and affectionately patted her head. "So, are you getting along well in the Eastern Palace?"
"Yes," Qiuying assured, living comfortably with plentiful food and no one bullying her. The people of the Eastern Palace treated her nicely, but still, she craved the warmth of her family.
