She took a moment to recover.
"Let's go."
With that, she took the lead and began walking out of the Prince Mansion.
Cheng Huan scrambled up from the ground and hurried after Su Ye, sticking close behind her.
After leaving the Prince Mansion, they walked a long way in the pouring rain.
Su Ye glanced over her shoulder at Cheng Huan, who was a step behind her.
"Do you still want to follow me?"
Cheng Huan frantically shook his head, backing away as he did so.
"No, no. From now on... from now on, I won't bother you again, Young City Lord."
With that, Cheng Huan scrambled away, running in the opposite direction from Su Ye.
It looked as if he wanted to get as far away from Su Ye as possible.
Soaked by the rain, Su Ye walked toward Qinghuang Academy.
But her steps grew heavier the farther she went.
