The crowd surged like a tide, the surrounding noise seemingly having nothing to do with her, as Shen Hua felt like she had stepped into thin air, her body plunging straight down.
Her back chilled, yet certain matters simply could not withstand scrutiny.
She bit her lips tightly and after a long time, she finally whispered softly, "Return to the mansion."
The carriage wheels rolled on the ground, with Cheng Gui riding the horse.
Shen Hua leaned weakly against Yingwu, her hands tightly clutching the latter's clothes, her expression dazed.
"The hibiscus cakes from the shop ahead were said to be delicious last time. Should we buy some more to take back?"
The girl appeared listless, unusually downcast.
Seeing this, Yingwu felt something was amiss but did not say anything more.
Upon returning to Marquis Yangling Mansion, Shen Hua raised her eyes to look at the sky, her thoughts unknown to anyone, and eventually headed nonchalantly towards Sui Courtyard.
