Lantian remained in Wan Hua Lou till the sun rose.

When the morning came, she walked out of the leisurely place back home.

At the front door, the male servants were wiping dirt and leaves from the ground; when Lantian crossed, they made their heads lower respectfully and said, “Third young lady.”

Lantian just gave a small nodded head and said “Um” in . Last night, she had a huge fun with the pretty flowers, she did not have enough sleep, and it caused her to yawn on the way inside the house.

As she was strolling along the corridor, her ears heard some noise. Half opening eyes became full opening.
