Dugu Ruyuan asked about Dugu Xiaomeng's visit to the Prince's Mansion. Moreover, the letter she left behind mentioned that she would beg the Prince's Mansion for her father again, so he first came to the Prince's Mansion to inquire about the situation.

"Old Zhao, did you see our eldest lady?" Dugu Ruyuan recognized Butler Zhao who had sent Dugu Xiaomeng back to the mansion as soon as he entered the prince's mansion, and immediately asked.

"Mr. Dugu, what wind has blown you? I'll go and ask my master out now." Butler Zhao pretended not to understand Dugu Ruyuan's inquiry, because Dugu Xiaomeng specifically instructed Butler Zhao not to tell her whereabouts at will. She and the butler also admitted that she had run away from home and had no choice but to seek the prince's protection.

"Have you woke up?" Dugu Ruyuan did not dare to disturb the crown prince casually. Although he was the crown prince's father-in-law, he still had to follow the etiquette of the monarch and his subjects.

"You should wake up, sir." Butler Zhao took the opportunity to sneak into the west wing.

"What's wrong with the butler?" Dugu Xiaomeng didn't expect that she was disturbed by the butler Zhao early in the morning.

"The master's father is here... I'm asking me, but I see you... I'm so scared that I'm here to come quickly... I'll inform you!" Butler Zhao is old but his legs are quite flexible, and he jogs all the way to inform me.

"Thank you for your hard work, butler Zhao, don't say you've seen me... or just say I came to the mansion yesterday and left after a while." Dugu Xiaomeng patiently instructed that she didn't want to be caught by her father. She finally made up her mind to escape, and she couldn't compromise easily.

"How should I explain it there?" Butler Zhao asked carefully.

"The prince was drunk yesterday and probably couldn't remember me anymore. It's okay, I'll leave now." Dugu Xiaomeng immediately packed her bags and prepared to leave the prince's mansion.

After asking Dugu Xiaomeng, Butler Zhao felt much more at ease. He slowly went to the prince’s bedroom and knocked on the door while whispering: “Master, are you awake?”

"What's the matter?" Shen Yiyu got up sleepyly and opened the door for Butler Zhao.

"Your Highness, Lord Dugu is waiting in the courtyard." Butler Zhao said again.

"Just just ask him to find Xiaomeng. Why bother me?" Shen Yiyu thought it was something important. Butler Zhao was very sensible on weekdays. If it weren't for urgent matters, he would never disturb his master's rest easily.

"Miss Dugu told Lao Nu that she should not tell others about her itinerary, nor could she admit that she was hiding in the prince's mansion." Butler Zhao said in a difficult face.

"I'll tell me, what can I hide between father and daughter?" Shen Yiyu wanted to let Dugu Xiaomeng return home quickly, so that he could calm down himself.

"Mr. Dugu, I've been waiting for a long time." Shen Yiyu smiled and said, after all, he was his future father-in-law, so he should give him some face.

"If you disturb Your Highness the Crown Prince, please forgive me." Dugu Ruyuan was very polite to the Crown Prince.

"You are polite, Lord Dugu, come into the house and take a rest." Shen Yiyu invited warmly.

"No need to bother with your highness. I just want to ask you if you have seen my Xiaomeng?" Dugu Ruyuan dared not say directly that Dugu Xiaomeng was missing.

"I've seen her. She was driven out of the door by her aunt. Yesterday I came to me and complained." Shen Yiyu didn't want to cover up Dugu Xiaomeng.

"There is still this? I don't know... Where did your Highness Xiaomeng go later?" Dugu Ruyuan didn't know if Dugu Xiaomeng really quarreled with Jing Yisu, but he still felt that his beloved daughter's words and deeds were inappropriate. No one was so stupid that he took the initiative to make his family ugly, especially for his future husband to laugh at his parents for his bad family traditions.

"She didn't leave, so she stayed in my house for a night." Shen Yiyu felt that it was inappropriate after he said that, and immediately added: "Sister, she lives alone in the wing room. Lord Dugu should not get me wrong."

"Uh, can your highness take me to see?" Dugu Ruyuan's face turned pale and red. For the first time, he was so embarrassed by Dugu Xiaomeng's words and deeds. Even if he quarreled with his aunt, he could not run away from home. Even if he ran away from home, he could not live in his husband's house, which had not passed away?

"Mr. Dugu, don't teach Xiaomeng a lesson. Her mother left early, and you are still busy with official duties all day long. No matter how kind my aunt treats her, she is still polite. She came to ask me again and again for your business." Shen Yiyu wanted to test Dugu Ruyuan's attitude.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your trouble for the empress. Xiaomeng will have to ask you to take care of him in the future." Dugu Ruyuan just wanted to take Dugu Xiaomeng back to the mansion to discipline him well. Then, as an adult, he still couldn't tell what to say and what not to say.

"Don't be angry with Xiaomeng, okay?" Shen Yiyu led Dugu Ruyuan to the west wing while persuading.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is troubled." Dugu Ruyuan felt a little bitter when he listened to Shen Yiyu's persuasion. After all, Dugu Xiaomeng's future safety will no longer be controlled by him.

"Sister, are you awake?" Shen Yiyu pushed the door and found that the bedding on the bed was messy, but there was no one.

"This child probably avoided it because he knew I was here, hey~" Dugu Ruyuan shook his head helplessly. It turned out that the person he loved his daughter didn't want to see the least was himself.

"Sir, don't be upset. Xiaomeng is probably still angry. I will persuade her when I see her." Shen Yiyu said comfortingly as if he was watching the excitement. He had long heard of Dugu Xiaomeng's willfulness.

"Then your highness should have a good rest, so the old minister will not disturb you too much." Dugu Ruyuan wanted to leave the mansion and search for it quickly. He had just tried the bed and there was still warmth. He believed that Dugu Xiaomeng must have not gone far.

"God of Dugu~" Shen Yiyu signaled the housekeeper to send Dugu Ruyuan out of the mansion, but he closed the door and tiptoed back to the bed, staring at the cabinet intently.

"I'm finally leaving, I can suffocate myself to death." Dugu Xiaomeng kicked open the cabinet door and took a deep breath. When she heard her father's voice just now, she was so scared that she didn't even dare to breathe.

"Are you willing to give up?" Shen Yiyu looked at Dugu Xiaomeng with a smile on his face.

"You haven't left?" Dugu Xiaomeng heard the sound of closing the door and thought Shen Yiyu had left.

"You didn't leave either?" Shen Yiyu finally understood why Shen Yien was so obsessed with Dugu Xiaomeng, and did not follow the ordinary path. It was indeed rare in the world who loved mavericks.

"I was too anxious just now, afraid that my father would come across it. Brother Xie Yu didn't expose me in person, so I'll leave now." Dugu Xiaomeng clasped his fists and thanked him, looking like a wise man.

"I don't mean to chase my sister away. If my sister wants to, she can stay in the prince's mansion for the time being."

"I won't disturb you anymore. I just don't want to be caught by my father. My legs are on my body, so I can go back on my own initiative." Dugu Xiaomeng was afraid that Shen Yiyu would know that he had come out to escape the marriage, so she took her back to Dugu Mansion. She simply found a safe place to live first and then make other plans.
