The venue was quiet.

Without hesitation, Shen Xi pulled aside mu Shinian's hand, smiled and said, "this is my sister. Do you know her?"

Gong Jie looked at her face, his eyes obviously dodging.

But just a moment later, he closed his eyes and nodded.

"Dad, we're back."

Gong Jie nodded his head hard.

His eyes are wet.

I can't say what I want to say.

But we all know.

At this stage, they are willing to come back and guard the palace family, rather than let them fall into the hands of others. This is enough.

Mu Shinian glanced at the crowd and asked the family with a smile, "how about our identity being announced to the public?"

Gu Yun's face was stiff.

She looked at her son, but Gong Ming was calm and said with a smile; "Nothing is more important than dad's recognition. Since Dad has recognized your identity, no one will say anything."

Shen Xi smiled, looked at her father and spoke gently; "Dad, my sister and I have just come back. We need a place to live. We are all a family. Let's live in the palace. We have more opportunities to contact. Our family can contact each other somehow."

Gu Yun smiled and said, "this is natural."

"Well, we'll stay in tonight." Shen Xi quickly blocked what she didn't say: "just in time, my sister and I came in a hurry and didn't have any clothes. You helped us buy them together. We came all the way. We were very tired."

"... yes, yes."

Gu Yun's smile was more distorted.

Her fingernails are almost stuck in her flesh.

"Since you are a family, of course you live together. We welcome you very much."

……

Late at night.

Mu Shinian's feet were worn out. She sat on the sofa, soaking her feet, holding a pillow in her hand, looking at the ceiling expressionless.

It looks empty.

Shen Xi poured her a glass of water and asked uneasily, "are you okay?"

"OK."

Mu Shinian took it, took two drinks and put the water cup on the table.

"Nothing will happen today. You're tired. Go and have a rest first."

Shen Xi sat on the sofa next to her, a little uneasy: "I want to see him."

Mu Shinian raised his eyelids and looked at him: "do you really want to see it?"

"He just held my hand and obviously wanted to say something. I know that Gu Yun and his people must be around him now, but since he has to see me, he must have something to explain."

Shen Xi took a breath and said, "I'd better go and have a look."

Mu Shinian was silent and nodded slowly: "wait, I'll go with you."

"No, no, I'll just go myself." Shen Xi was embarrassed: "I know you don't want to see him very much."

Mu Shinian picked up the glass of water and wanted to drink, but when he reached his mouth, he put it back.

She shook her head: "forget it, I have something to ask him."

Shen Xi suddenly felt sorry for her: "don't be sad. It's not your fault. You didn't do anything wrong." After a pause, he scratched his head; "I can't say anything to comfort you, but what happened so many years ago has nothing to do with you."

"I know." Mu Shinian also smiled: "however, thank you for your comfort."

Shen Xi also laughed.

……

The manor is large and single family.

When they passed by, they met many people, but no one dared to stop them.

But as soon as they heard that they were going to see Gong Jie, the housekeeper immediately stopped them.

"Sir, I'm tired today. I've fallen asleep."
