Zuo Xiangning, upon learning that her third brother was unharmed, finally relaxed. Only then did she notice that her feet were in intense pain and her legs were also sore and aching, making every step a struggle.
She turned into a nearby alley and found a stone to sit on.
She had rushed out today in such a hurry that she hadn't even brought a copper coin.
As she was worrying about how to get back home, a dark figure appeared before her.
Zuo Xiangning thought it was Gu Zhiqing and frowned as she looked up. When she saw who it actually was, she exclaimed with surprise, "Young Master?"
"What are you doing here?" The man looked at her disheveled hair and her pale little face and asked with concern, "What happened?"
"I was looking for my third brother..." Zuo Xiangning paused and then said, "It's alright now."
"Doesn't your family have servants? Who let you come out to look for him?" Lingxiao said displeasedly: "Roaming around with disheveled hair, what a sight you are."
