d with tears, and she choked back sobs. "Miss, you've suffered so much. What kind of person is this The Crown Prince seemed so gentle and refined before, but I never expected him to be so irresponsibl...Gu Jingxi went upstairs.

Meng Jinyao reached out without a sound and grasped the sleeve of his official robe.

Just as Gu Jingxi was about to take a step, he felt his sleeve being tugged. He lowered his eyes and saw a small hand gripping his sleeve, the red of his sleeve making the little hand appear startlingly white.

His little daughter's hands are as tender as willow branches and her fingers are as green as spring onions.

He took her little hand in his, and said softly, "Let's go."

Meng Jinyao, seeing this, couldn't help but push further. She spread her fingers and slipped them into the spaces between his, interlocking their ten fingers.
