On the day Yueyao left for the mountains, Luo Mingzhu sent an invitation, asking Yueyao to attend the chrysanthemum appreciation event she was hosting at Marquis Jingning's Residence half a month later.
Luo Mingzhu, upon hearing that Yueyao had gone to the mountains without even telling her, was very unhappy and muttered, "She really doesn't consider me a friend, otherwise she wouldn't have left for such a big matter without informing me." Luo Mingzhu felt somewhat hurt; she had treated Yueyao as a true friend, but now it seemed as though she was the only one enthusiastic about it.
Bai Yi said with a smile, "Miss, Miss Yueyao went to Zhaohua Temple, a place of hardship in the mountains, not exactly a pleasant destination. Moreover, I believe Miss Yueyao must have had her reasons for the urgency; otherwise, she wouldn't have left without informing you." Although Bai Yi didn't know the exact reason for her departure, he guessed it wasn't for anything good.
