Yu Wenye's footsteps seemed to grow heavier as well.
But no clear change appeared on his face. He only pondered for a moment, then lowered his head and said to Shang Ruyi, "I have something to say to her. You go back to Qianqiu Palace first."
Shang Ruyi nodded. "Mn."
She watched Yu Wenye walk toward Jinyu Garden, and saw Chu Ruoyan hastily go up to meet him. After giving Yu Wenye a formal salute, she began saying something to him in delight, her eyes shimmering with tears, yet in the end the joy of this reunion pressed the tears down, and her whole person brightened. Yu Wenye also supported her by the arm and earnestly comforted her a few words, then led her into Jinyu Garden.
Only then did Shang Ruyi lift her feet and continue walking toward Qianqiu Palace.
As soon as she stepped through the main gate, she saw Tushere and Chang Wan leading a group of eunuchs and palace maids standing in the courtyard, all properly bowing and saluting to her: "Greetings to the Princess."
