Feng Fuce said flatly, "Because we were in a hurry to return to the palace, I didn't let the Second Young Master return home to rest, but brought him directly to report back to the Emperor."
Bai Xilie felt compassion for the Second Young Master, "Why the rush to enter the palace? If you were late, I wouldn't blame you."
However, Feng Fuce looked up and glanced at Bai Zhi'er.
Why was he in such a hurry to return to the palace?
It was certainly for her.
Bai Zhi'er sensed his gaze, and after a brief moment of eye contact, she spoke first, "I heard you also brought back a young lady?"
Feng Fuce immediately furrowed his cold and handsome brow.
"It wasn't me; the Second Young Master insisted on bringing her back."
Bai Qiyang wiped away his tears and recalling the matter, he explained, "Second Uncle, during the days I was held captive by bandits, only one person cared for me."
