A quarter of an hour later.

Mei Qingge appeared at the door of the stone chamber where she was temporarily staying in Piaomiao Silver City, and saw He Yuan standing under a tree from afar.

He put his hands behind his back, looked up at the treetops, his brows slightly furrowed, his face full of worry.

Mei Qingge coughed lightly.

"It's so late, you're still awake?"

Hearing Mei Qingge's voice, He Yuan shuddered all over and immediately turned his head.

"Qingge, why are you here?"

Mei Qingge stopped, and her voice became softer instead of sharp as before.

"I couldn't sleep, so I came to see you."

She took a step forward and sighed softly: "He Yuan, maybe... I really misunderstood you."

Seeing Mei Qingge's gentle eyebrows and expression, He Yuan's heart was moved. He immediately took a few quick steps and hugged Mei Qingge in his arms.

"Thank you, Qingge. As the Lord of Silver City, I am also to blame for this matter. That disciple has already escaped and will not stay dormant for too long. I have already set up a method to lure the snake out of its hole. It won't be long before the truth of this matter comes to light."

Leaning on He Yuan's solid chest, Mei Qingge's tense body slowly relaxed.

She came here because of her daughter's persuasion. Listening to He Yuan's deep voice, Mei Qingge really didn't know whether she could still trust this man.

"Oh, what would you do?"

Mei Qingge already knew that the disciple's body was stolen by the Ye brothers, so she was not surprised to hear this.

She raised her head and looked at He Yuan with a puzzled look.

He Yuan hugged Mei Qingge tighter, almost embedding her into his chest. He did not speak, but slowly lowered his head as if he wanted to kiss Mei Qingge.

Mei Qingge's expression changed slightly. Although they were in love with each other, they would inevitably desire physical contact, but He Yuan was not a frivolous man. Why did he suddenly become like this? Wasn't he afraid of being seen by Gongsun Yunfeng?

"You, what are you doing?"

Mei Qingge's face turned slightly red and she placed her hand on He Yuan's chest.

He Yuan's breathing suddenly became heavy, and his eyes became a little more blurred.

"Qingge, I have thought about you for more than ten years. Tomorrow I will let you return to Silver City with me."

Mei Qingge couldn't help but feel angry and annoyed. It would be fine if she said something inappropriate in the boudoir, but how could she talk nonsense here?

Just as he was about to scold, the stone door beside him creaked open.

Gongsun Yunfeng walked out of the room and saw the two people hugging each other. Instead of showing any displeasure, she looked surprised.

"Sister Mei, when did you come?"

He Yuan's eyes swept across her face, then quickly retracted, and then he grabbed Mei Qingge's hand.

"Qingge just came here to inquire about the disciple's resurrection."

Gongsun Yunfeng glanced at the two people's interlocked fingers, took the initiative to step forward and held Mei Qingge's other hand.

"There are too many mosquitoes outside. Sister Mei, please come inside to talk, lest you get bitten. Your husband will be distressed."

Thinking of Yin Qingxuan's analysis, Mei Qingge smiled and said, "No need. I'll talk to He Yuan and leave. Sister, go in first. The wind is strong in the mountains, not as strong as in Yincheng. Be careful not to catch a cold."

Gongsun Yunfeng chuckled: "Sister Mei, don't worry. We are all martial artists, so we are not that delicate. If Sister Mei and my husband have something to say in private, that's another matter."

Mei Qingge raised the corners of her lips slightly, and said half-truthfully: "I do have something I want to say, I wonder if my sister would be willing to give me some convenience?"

Gongsun Yunfeng said: "Of course, I won't bother you anymore. My husband, please don't make Sister Mei angry again this time."

"Well, you don't have to wait for me tonight."

After He Yuan finished speaking, he turned to Mei Qingge and said, "Qingge, do you remember when we first met, you always stayed on my back and refused to get off? Come on, I'll carry you, and we can talk while we walk."

Mei Qingge blushed and said angrily, "You are already old, how can you be so frivolous?"

He Yuan had already pulled her arm and was carrying Mei Qingge on his back in a domineering manner.

"You and I are husband and wife, there is nothing to be ashamed of."

Mei Qingge hit him lightly and laughed like a little girl.

Watching the two people's backs getting farther and farther away, the smile on Gongsun Yunfeng's face gradually disappeared. After a moment, it returned to its original gentleness and turned around and walked back to the stone chamber.

In the forest, on a big tree that two people could hug together, Ye Jingyu and Yin Qingxuan stood on the left and right of the tree branch.

Ye Jingyu whispered: "Mother performed well this time. Gongsun Yunfeng has changed her attitude and will definitely take action in the future."

He paused and said, "I think my father also has some doubts, otherwise he wouldn't be like this."

Yin Qingxuan hummed. He Yuan's style of doing things was still a bit old-fashioned. This was indeed not something he would do.

"As long as we keep a close eye on Gongsun Yunfeng, we will definitely find some clues."

As soon as Yin Qingxuan finished speaking, she saw a lame man limping towards her from the cave next to her.

He came to the stone chamber, bowed and said: "Madam, I have something important to report!"
