Yueyao looked at the study: "This time when I return, I probably won't come back for a while." Without resolving the matter with Zhou Shu, she would not leave the Capital City again.
Capital City is under the Emperor's protection, even Zhou Shu, no matter how brave, wouldn't dare kidnap anyone here, so the Capital City is relatively safe.
Gu You and Gu Lan, due to their severe injuries, stayed behind at the manor to recuperate. Once they're healed, they'll be brought back to the Capital City.
The manor is quite far from the Capital City, at the break of dawn, Yueyao, with over twenty guards, headed back to the Capital City. The group only returned to Ma's Mansion by evening.
Ma Chengteng was somewhat surprised to hear Yueyao had returned. Usually, Yueyao wouldn't return until November or December. Her early return in late August seemed odd.
Yueyao explained, "Uncle, Mingzhu wrote to me, saying she is with child, so I came back to see her."
