Daohua leaned on the window, staring blankly at the distant river waters, not even noticing Wang Manman approaching.

Seeing her lady lost in thought again, Wang Manman, with helplessness and bewilderment on her face, hesitated before speaking, “My lady, what has been troubling you these days?”

Daohua glanced at her but remained silent.

After a moment’s thought, Wang Manman continued, “Is my lady angry with the Little Prince? If I may say so, the Little Prince sometimes behaves inappropriately. If my lady does not like something about him, it would be best to speak with him directly. Why avoid him completely? By doing so, you might hurt the bond you’ve shared for so many years.”

Daohua furrowed her brows, “I am just pondering some issues, and I do not wish to see him right now.”

Wang Manman asked, puzzled, “What is it that my lady is thinking about?”

No sooner had the words left her mouth, than a knocking sound came from the door. Wang Manman quickly went out, only to return shortly after, looking joyously at Daohua.

Daohua asked, “What happened?”

Wang Manman smiled and said, “My lady, the Little Prince has followed us here.”

“What?!”

Daohua swiftly stood up, then leaned out of the window to look back and truly saw a boat rapidly pursuing them, with Xiao Yeyang standing prominently on the deck at the front.

Startled, Wang Manman hastily pulled her back inside, “My lady, be careful not to fall into the water.”

Daohua sat back down, her hands fidgeting with her handkerchief in agitation.

Outside, Xiaoliu saw Xiao Yeyang catching up and had no choice but to slow the boat down.

Soon, the two boats drew near each other.

“Pull the boat to shore!”

Xiao Yeyang directly commanded Xiaoliu.

Xiaoliu looked toward the cabin, hesitating.

Seeing him delay, De Fu urged him, “What are you dawdling for? Pull the boat to shore.”

Seeing Xiao Yeyang’s stern face, Xiaoliu glanced at the cabin again, noticed that Daohua and Wang Manman had not come out, and reluctantly edged the boat to the shore.

The moment the boat reached the shore, Xiao Yeyang jumped from his boat onto the one where Daohua was, and then walked straight into the cabin.

Inside the cabin, as Xiao Yeyang strode in, fury etched on his face, Daohua’s gaze shifted uneasily, turning to look out the window, avoiding eye contact with him.

Xiao Yeyang’s gaze was fixed on Daohua, he said sternly, “Get out!”

Wang Manman was momentarily stunned before realizing the command was for her, and though not wanting to leave, she shrank back when the Little Prince shot her a piercing look.

“My lady…”

Daohua gestured with her hand, “You go ahead and leave first.”

Wang Manman looked worriedly at her lady, feeling uneasy. Only when the Little Prince gave her a second, sharper glance, did she reluctantly start moving toward the door, “My lady, I’ll be right outside the door. Just call for me if you need anything!”

Standing by the door, De Fu, anxious about the situation, had to step inside the room and pull Wang Manman out, then carefully closed the door behind them.

For a time, only Daohua and Xiao Yeyang remained in the room.

Daohua, with her head bowed, fiddled with her handkerchief. She intended to wait for Xiao Yeyang to speak first, but after a considerable silence, she had to look up, only to see him gazing at her with furrowed brows.

“What are you doing?”

Xiao Yeyang took several deep breaths, but this did not quell the fire inside him. Irritated, he said, “I should be the one asking you that. Yan Yiyi, what exactly are you up to?”

Daohua turned her head away, “I’m not up to anything.”

Xiao Yeyang stepped forward until he was in front of Daohua and challenged her, “You’re not up to anything? Then why, when everything was fine, are you avoiding me?”

Daohua paused, defiantly retorting, “I’m not avoiding you.”
