The cold wind of the night blew against his face, waking Yun Churen's wine up by quite a bit. After a long while, she lowered her head and said,

"Your Highness, it is already late at night. This subject's daughter will return to her room first."

The Hundred Miles Night Tower was unable to see her current expression, but from her calm voice, it was clear that this woman was not the least bit afraid of him. He even dared to request to leave before he left. After all these years, he was the first person who dared to do so. If she wasn't the eldest miss of the Residence of Yun, then who was she?

"Your Highness, Your Highness …"

Yun Chuli did not hear the Hundred Miles Night Tower's reply. She could only raise her volume and call out a few more times. The woman's crisp voice brought him back to reality. He looked at her a little awkwardly. He looked completely clueless as to what was going on.

Yun Chu-li saw his expression. The corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily. His expression was so cute. How could an outsider say that he was the cold faced King of Hell? She didn't feel that the third prince was scary at all.

Seeing the obvious smile on her face, the Hundred Miles Night Tower immediately recovered its cold expression to cover up the awkwardness. He pretended to be calm as he asked.

"I was thinking about something just now, didn't you hear what you said?"

With that, he glanced at her, meaning that he wanted her to say it again.

Afraid that the third prince would be angry, Yun Churei immediately withdrew his smile, but the smile in his eyes could not be hidden. She said it again in a clear and melodious voice.

"Your Highness, it's already late, it's time for Your Highness to return to the palace."

The Hundred Miles Night Tower took a look at the sky outside. It was unknown when it had completely darkened, but lanterns were hanging everywhere in the courtyard.

It was as if time passed by extremely quickly when he was with this woman. Seeing that he was about to fall silent again, Yun Chu-Li decided to remind him again. However, the Hundred Miles Night Tower took the lead and said:

"It seems to be very late. Miss Yun should return home earlier as well."

Then, without waiting for Yun Chuli to say anything, he walked away from the other end of the pavilion.

She looked at the tall and straight back of Hundred Miles Night Tower and guessed in her heart that she must have known about this before. She knew that he was cold on the outside, but his heart was warm. Although she had told her that she wasn't the young miss of the Yun Family, she wasn't worried that he would leak this secret out. As long as he did not say anything, only Yun Chuxi would know. With her identity as a concubine, he would not be able to do anything to her. She could use her identity without worry.

After sorting everything out, he seemed to have nothing to worry about anymore. Thus, he returned to his room with light footsteps.

Just as he walked to the door, he saw everyone kneeling there, and Madam Yun's voice could faintly be heard.

"Where did Miss go? So many of you, haven't you seen her? If anything happens to Miss, let's see how I'll deal with you. "

To be honest, this was the first time she had seen Madam Yun lose her temper ever since she had arrived at the Residence of Yun. She had always been careful to spoil her, so much so that she had forgotten that she was the mistress of the Residence of Yun. How could she not have some dignity?

In order to avoid harming the innocent, Yun Chuli quickly walked into the courtyard. When the sharp-eyed maidservants saw her enter, they immediately called out.

"Madam, the Miss is back."

When Madam Yun heard this, she hurriedly ran over and pulled Yun Chu-Li's hand as she carefully examined every part of her body. After confirming that everything was fine, he asked.

"Li Er, where did you go? I thought you would …"

Yun Chuli had not expected that the majestic Madam Yun would start crying in front of her servants. She looked at the scene in front of her with a helpless expression, not knowing what to say. In the end, she could only silently stand there.

"Li Er, mom finally managed to find you. You can't let anything happen to me. Otherwise, how are you going to let me live?"

Yun Chuli could understand Madam Yun's feelings at the moment. Her daughter was a piece of flesh in her heart. If something happened, the one who would hurt her the most would be her mother. She was infected by her emotions and thought of her modern parents.

Although she often quarreled with her mother because of disagreements, she knew that all their love was for her daughter. Now, in this damnable ancient era, she still didn't know how sad these two elders were right now. She was also unconsciously crying.

When Madam Yun saw the tears on her face, she thought she was thinking about how she had been wandering around by herself.

"Li Er, don't cry. It's good that you're back. Mother will definitely protect you from now on and prevent you from going through any more suffering."

Yun Chu-Li looked at her with a pained expression. If one day she knew that she was not her daughter but a fake one, and that her real daughter was long gone, she was afraid that Madam Yun would not be able to accept this news.

Thinking of this, she was like a little girl, nestling into Madam Yun's embrace like a real mother and daughter.

Madam Yun felt Yun Chuli's movements and looked at her with a joyful expression. Because Yun Chuli knew that his identity was not her daughter, she had never treated the people of the Residence of Yun as family. There was a barrier to Madam Yun as well. Madam Yun must have felt it too, but she thought that her daughter had just returned and wasn't used to it. Although he was sad, he didn't force her. This was the first time they had gotten so close to each other.

After all, Madam Yun was the manager's wife. Even if she lost her composure, it would only be for a short period of time. She quickly regained her composure and realized that there were still many servants around. He immediately used the silk handkerchief to wipe his tears and said,

"Li Er, it's good that you're back. It's late, so you must be tired. Go and rest early." He looked around the yard and said,

"Zijuan, why aren't you coming over to help Miss go in to rest?"

A servant girl dressed in pink and purple immediately ran out and helped the still in a daze to carry Yun Chu-Li back to her room.

Madam Yun only left with her maidservants after she had truly entered the room.

After returning to her room, Yun Chuli walked out from her previous sorrowful state of mind. She casually wiped away the tears on her face, just in time to see the unfriendly expression on Zi Juan's face. She mocked in her heart. Other than Madam Yun, there was probably no one else in the Residence of Yun that thought of her as the young miss of the Residence of Yun. She thought for a moment and asked.

"Zijuan, mother didn't make things difficult for you just now, right?" she asked amiably.

Zi Juan immediately put away the displeasure on her face. She was extremely reluctant to serve this young miss who was said to be a brothel girl, but her current identity was that of a young miss of the Residence of Yun. She only dared to gossip behind her back.
