Li Hua widened her eyes upon seeing Mingquan, who gestured to her to keep quiet by putting his pointer finger on his lips. He slowly pulled his hands back from her wrists and peeked out of the pillar. Qiu Mu and Eunuch Shi Rang had their backs to them.
He grasped the edge of her sleeve and brought her out of the chamber without getting to their notice. Letting Li Hua's sleeve go, he asked her to leave. Court Lady Hong confusedly looked at them.
"Brother Lóng Wei isn't here. He had left the earliest," Mingquan informed Li Hua. "Sister-in-law shall leave to the manor," he stated. Li Hua bowed at him and walked away. She was scared after what she heard from Qiu Mu. Cold Sweat started to appear on her hands and her face. She started to run towards the manor, and it confused Court Lady Hong.
