Although she didn't know why Big Block of Ice would suddenly think of going together with her to Chu Manor, Chu Qing-Yan chose not to question this too much.

Otherwise, the gloominess that was dispersed from Big Block of Ice's heart with great difficulty would come back with just one question from her. Then wouldn't it be that the gains don't make up for the losses?

Once Big Block of Ice was going, Gu Rong and Gu Yi also followed along.

She recalled the first time she saw Big Block of Ice in Chu Manor, the two people that followed by his side were this pair of twins. At that time, she couldn't tell who was who. Now she could tell them apart.

The man with the big smile and evil intentions is Guo Rong, the gloomy faced one is Gu Yi.

Although the two of them weren't very satisfied with her, but because of Big Block of Ice's intentional protection of her this period of time, in addition to Fire Spirit group's people treating her differently, Guo Rong and Guo Yi didn't express such rejection of her as before. But they also didn't get much closer to her either.

At most, they would bow when they met her, and had no other objections. Afterall, the two of them were punished to being hit by boards because of her. Because of feelings and reasons, it was normal she was unpleasant in their eyes. And she had no reason to try and change because of how others viewed her. Afterall, some things are bound to happen naturally. She had no way to change people who had bad opinions of her.

Their departure was imminent, and tomorrow her parents probably won't come out to send them off. So today's separation, afraid it was going to be a long time before they saw each other again. As a result, Chu Qing-Yan sat in the same carriage as her parents while Xiao Xu sat in a horse carriage by himself.

There was a bit of distance between Chu Manor and Prince Ying manor. By the time they arrived, an hour had passed.

Daddy Chu and Mother Chu first got out of the carriage and Chu Qing-Yan followed right after.

She lifted her eyes to look at the large gate to Chu manor. Because of her bestowed marriage, Western Xuan emperor rewarded Chu family with a lot of stuff. Those silvers were all misappropriated by Chu family. They were impatient to rebuild Chu family. By the time they come back, almost all the money would have already be spent.

So this Chu Manor could be considered to be gilded on the outside and shabby inside.

On the outside it looked wealthy, but inside had already been emptied out.

Originally, the two servants standing at the gate ignored the people that came out from the horse carriage. Suddenly they saw Chu Qing-Yan get off the carriage, and their arrogant appearance of not having seen them immediately became polite as they attentively bowed towards her. "Ninth Miss Chu has returned to the manor, your presence brightens this humble dwelling!"

Chu Qing-Yan lamented, the typical model of seeing the ways things flow and following to curry favor!

And at this moment, Xiao Xu had also gotten off his carriage and slowly walked over. The servants had never seen him, but seeing him get off Prince Ying's horse carriage and also wearing a mask, a chill passed through them and with a 'thump' sound, they kneeled down. "Ying, His Highness Prince Ying——"

Chu Qing-Yan shrugged her shoulders towards him, looks like his reputation was still well-known!

Xiao Xu rightfully took the lead and stepped foot inside the manor.

While Chu Qing-Yan brought her parents to follow closely behind.

Once Elder Master Chu and others heard His Highness Prince Ying had arrived, he immediately convened everyone to wait in the front courtyard.
