In Qiuxiang Courtyard.

    Qiu Ling happily served Cheng Yunshuo dinner.

    The lights were flickering in the small courtyard, and Qiu Ling kept telling Cheng Yunshuo about interesting things in the past.

    As they chatted, Cheng Yunshuo, who had originally deliberately kept a distance from Qiu Ling, also relaxed.

    After all, the weight of old friends in people's hearts is different.

    Cheng Yunshuo drove Qiu Ling away at the beginning because he was too passionate.

    He had just spent ten thousand taels of gold to compete with a group of young men from aristocratic families in Piaoxiangyuan and forcibly redeemed Xing Dairong. At that moment, he was truly making the whole world his enemy just for her.

    Xing Dairong said, "We are a couple for life." After he returned, he immediately drove Qiu Ling out.

    He doesn't care about anything at all.

    Now that Qiu Ling is back with him, their old friendship slowly resurfaces, and he can't help but feel that he was too obsessed with Xing Dairong back then.

    There is no such thing as eternally hot passion in this world. If we don't face the storms of the world together, the passion will eventually fade away.

    "Prince, would you please stay here with me tonight?" Qiu Ling asked gently.

    Cheng Yunshuo responded in a neutral tone, "Yeah."

    Qiu Ling couldn't help but show joy between her brows. Just as she was about to pick up some food for Cheng Yunshuo, she heard Qiu Kui's voice coming from outside the house.

    "My Lord..."

    Qiu Kui walked in with her head down, and when she saw Qiu Ling, she lowered her head even more and said in a soft voice, "Sister Qiu Ling."

    Qiu Ling saw the slap mark on her face and asked, "What happened to your face?"

    Cheng Yunshuo then turned his gaze to Qiu Kui's face.

    Qiu Kui hurriedly covered her face and said, "It's nothing. I bumped into it accidentally when I went out."

    "Come on! How could a big slap mark be left by a collision? Was it someone in your room who hit you?" Qiu Ling looked at him carefully.

    Qiu Kui didn't dare to say anything more, "No, no, I was just careless."

    "Don't talk to her anymore. We are all family members here, and we should let the prince know who that person is!"

    "Sister Qiu Ling, please stop talking. Miss Xing is also worried when she heard that the prince is not going back again." Qiu Kui covered her face with her hands, looking embarrassed.

    Cheng Yunshuo threw down his chopsticks when he heard this, "You want me to go back with this temper!"

    "Go back and tell her that I won't go back! If she dares to embarrass you again, don't even think about me going back in this lifetime!"

    Qiu Ling was delighted again when she heard this.

    That night, the prince did not go back and stayed in Qiuxiang Courtyard.

    However, the prince still did not sleep with Qiu Ling. He was just angry with Xing Dairong, and the two of them were in a bad mood.

    Finally, on the third day, Xing Dairong couldn't help it anymore, so he left Yaoguang Pavilion and ran to Qiuxiang Courtyard.
