Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Do you have anything to say to me?” Shen Miao looked at her in confusion. “If you have something to say, just say it.”
Hui Xiang said, “At noon today, Mr. Pei said that he wanted to go out for a walk. Young Master Gao also said that taking a walk will help him recover. As long as he doesn’t go too far, he will be fine. Mr. Pei wanted to be alone, so we didn’t follow. He usually would not leave the mansion, but today, he hasn’t come back until now.”
Shen Miao frowned. “Did something happen?” Pei Lang did not know martial arts. If he encountered any danger on the way, he would not be able to protect himself at all.

“We thought so too.” Hui Xiang said, “But Ba Jiao found this on the table in Mr. Pei’s room.” She took out something that looked like a letter from her sleeve and handed it to Shen Miao. “Mr. Pei’s clothes are missing from his room. If we’re not wrong, he should have left.”
Shen Miao was about to open the letter when she paused.
Xie Jingxing’s expression changed slightly.
“Did he say anything before he left?” Shen Miao asked Hui Xiang.
“He didn’t say anything,” Hui Xiang said.
Shen Miao was a little puzzled. Xie Jingxing said, “Let’s see what the letter says.” Just as he was about to get up and leave, Shen Miao grabbed his sleeve. Xie Jingxing turned around. Shen Miao said, “Let’s read it together.”
He stopped in his tracks and thought for a moment before sitting down again with a smile on his face.
At the beginning, the letter said that he was grateful that Shen Miao and Prince Rui were kind enough to accommodate him for so long. He also hoped that Shen Miao would keep her promise and help him take care of Liu Ying.
Pei Lang wrote that although he had followed Shen Miao to Long Ye, it was just a temporary solution. Because of Fu Xiuyi, he had no choice but to hide in Long Ye. However, staying in Prince Rui’s mansion was not a long term solution. He had his own plans and was prepared to travel around and broaden his horizons while he was still alive, so he left without saying goodbye.
During the time he spent in Prince Ding’s mansion, he learned some things about Prince Ding. He knew that Shen Miao seemed to be wary of Prince Ding, so he organized some things for Shen Miao, hoping that they could be of use to her in the future.
He said that after handing the things in this letter to Shen Miao, they would not owe each other anything. Pei Lang wrote that he did not know if they would have a chance to see each other again in this life and asked her to take good care of herself.
Pei Lang’s letter was extremely simple. There was almost nothing special about it. It was unknown if he was deliberately trying to draw a line between him and Shen Miao, but his words were filled with alienation and politeness. He looked like he had returned to the time when he was a teacher of Guangwen Hall.
The other piece of paper in the letter was filled with some things about Fu
Xiuyi. It was about his trusted aides, some of his plans, and some of the people he wanted to rope in or to take down.
When Xie Jingxing finished reading the last line, his expression couldn’t help but become solemn.
This letter recorded everything about Fu Xiuyi in detail. With this letter, Fu Xiuyi almost had no secrets in front of them. With this, dealing with Fu Xiuyi would be easy..
