From the moment she changed her name to Xiao Wenxi, she knew that there was no chance that she could be with him anymore.

"Mother, I know that even if I don't change my surname, I am still a girl from the Wei family, and he won't marry me." Xiao Wenxi lowered his eyes sadly.

She has delicate eyebrows, phoenix eyes, jade-like cheeks, red lips, and naturally upturned lips, which make her look graceful and gentle; her eyes are like water apricots, with shallow ripples.

As pretty as a peach in spring; as pure as a chrysanthemum in autumn.

The princess took Xiao Wenxi into her arms with a sense of loss: "I am very pleased that you can communicate with me."

Xiao Wenxi leaned against her mother, forcing the tears in her eyes away: "Mother, shall we invite the princess to be our guest?"

"Xi'er?"

"Mother, I want to take a good look at what kind of girl can be cherished by him so much." Xiao Wenxi raised his head with pleading eyes.

The princess thought for a while and replied, "Okay."

When Xiao Huayong returned to the East Palace, it was already the hour of Xu. However, he saw that Xiao Changgeng's bedroom was brightly lit, and his figure holding a book was cast on the doors and windows.

He went straight back to his bedroom. Tian Yuan was waiting anxiously. Only when he saw Xiao Huayong did he feel relieved. He quickly prepared toiletries and finally took the medicine to soak Xiao Huayong's nails. After a while, a complete nail fell off.

The bright red flesh was exposed. Xiao Huayong's nails had not yet grown out, so he used his own nails to stick a piece together. After special treatment, it was stuck on the finger through a layer of gauze as thin as a cicada's wing.

Because of the use of the medicine, the flesh on the fingertips turned purple after the nails fell off. Tian Yuan felt very distressed when he saw it: "Your Highness, please don't leave the palace again. You need to take good care of your nails."

In the palace, she had always been treated gently with medicine, but when she left the palace, she had to pretend to be someone else, so she had to be handled carefully.

"I'm afraid not." Xiao Huayong smiled slightly.

“Your Highness…” Tian Yuan was extremely helpless.

"In two days' autumn hunt, I will follow my own will." Xiao Huayong said, "Don't worry, I will no longer use the identity of Xiao Fuxing."

Tian Yuan was puzzled. "Why? Was she discovered again by the princess?"

"It's precisely because it hasn't been discovered." Xiao Huayong said with a cold face.

Shen Xihe was a solitary person. It was difficult for her to get along with people and things. Bu Shulin and Xue Jinqiao had to pester her to get her to treat them differently. She didn't treat Xiao Fuxing any differently, but she was not as cold and indifferent to him as usual.

This made Xiao Huayong feel uncomfortable, and he would never use Xiao Fuxing's identity again.

Isn’t it good not to be discovered

Seeing Xiao Huayong's unhappy look, Tian Yuan didn't dare to say anything more.

However, Tian Yuan did not expect that Xiao Huayong, who had vowed last night that he would no longer use Xiao Fuxing's identity, could not sit still when he heard in the morning that Princess Ruyang had sent an invitation to Shen Xihe and Shen Xihe had agreed.

"I have to go to Princess Ruyang's residence." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince began to fiddle with his fingers again. "I rejected all the invitations from other residences when Yoyo came to the capital, but today he actually agreed to my aunt's request. Maybe it was for Xiao Fuxing."

Tianyuan: …

Shen Xihe was indeed waiting for Xiao Fuxing to come again, but she received an invitation from Princess Ruyang, inviting her to have tea at the princess's mansion.

In the past, Shen Xihe would have refused, but today she guessed that this might be Xiao Fuxing's trick, so she agreed for the first time.

When she had packed up and arrived at Princess Ruyang's residence, she only saw Princess Ruyang and her daughter Xiao Wenxi.
