Sally and Gu Cheng returned to Mingzhu Island.
Saisai Xiya was already waiting for them, "Young Master, Miss Su, the Princess has urgent business and won't be returning. She especially instructed me to pass last night's message to Miss Su."
Gu Cheng nodded, "Mm, I know."
"What's the message?" Sally looked at Gu Cheng.
"Let's go to the study, I have something to show you," Gu Cheng replied.
…
Sally hugged a pillow, curled up on the sofa, staring silently at the golden rosewood floor.
Gu Cheng sat beside her, handing her a top-secret file, "You... my condolences."
Sally said to Gu Cheng, "I want to be alone for a while."
Gu Cheng hesitated, "…I'll go read, call me if you need anything."
"Mm." Sally's eyes kept fixed on the floor, not looking at him.
Gu Cheng got up, walked a few steps, then turned back, seeing her slumped over the armrest of the sofa, curled up in a ball... he sighed gently and walked towards the bookshelf not far away.
