The two of them were also obedient. They sat there motionless, their eyes still darting around, as if they were checking something.

MO Yuan frowned and said, “I didn’t see Young Master and Young Miss’s nanny when I went out just now. I asked the guards guarding the courtyard, but they all said that they didn’t see anyone enter the courtyard.”

Little Jiajia was stunned. Where did these two little ones come from?

“Sister, we’re here to save you,” Brother Hao whispered.

“What?” Little Jiajia was a little confused.

“I heard from them that those people outside are here to take you away. Don’t be afraid. We’ll help you escape.”

Little Jiajia felt that she understood, but not fully.

Sister Huan also said, “There’s a small hole at the back of this courtyard. We can climb out from there. That way, they won’t be able to catch you.”

Brother Hao nodded. “Big Brother dug that hole when he was young to hide from Grandpa. Only the three of us know.”

“That’s not right. Now that there’s you and Sister MO Yuan, only the five of us Imow.” As he spoke, he held out his palm and counted.

The corners of Little Jiajia’s mouth twitched. Thinking of the dirt on the two little fellows, she probably understood.

It seemed that these two little fellows had heard from someone that Chu Feng and the others were here to pick her up. When they saw someone guarding the courtyard, they thought that she had been imprisoned and secretly came to save her at night.

Little Jiajia was a little touched, but she also wanted to laugh. She reached out and rubbed the heads of the two little ones. “Thank you, but you might have misunderstood. Those people outside are not bad people.”

Brother Hao and Sister Huan tilted their heads at the same time, looking puzzled.

Little Jiajia thought they were adorable and explained patiently, “They’re actually here to bring Sister home. Do you know what home is? It’s a place with parents.” Brother Hao thought for a moment. “So Sister is going home?”

“That’s right.”

“Will Sister come back?”

“Of course. Brother Hao and Sister Huan, remember to miss me.”

Brother Hao nodded heavily. “I will.”

Sister Huan quickly promised, “I will too. Also, Big Brother will miss Sister.”

Little Jiajia was afraid that the main courtyard would be anxious when they realized that the two of them had disappeared, so she didn’t dare to ask them to stay any longer. After coaxing them, she quickly asked MO Yuan to send them back. She took the opportunity to take a small box from the inner room and avoided the guards guarding outside the courtyard to go to Song Jingchen’s courtyard.

At that moment, Song Jingchen had just returned from outside. As soon as he entered the study, he heard a sound outside the window. His heart skipped a beat and he quickly stuffed the things in his arms into the drawer. Almost at the same time, a figure jumped in through the window.

Seeing who it was, Song Jingchen wasn’t surprised at all.

“Hubby, what were you hiding just now?” Little Jiajia walked over curiously.

“Nothing.” Song Jingchen turned his head away and casually picked up a book.

“I’m looking for a book to read.”

Little Jiajia scratched her head. “But your book is upside down.”

When Song Jingchen heard this, he subconsciously changed the direction of the book. On careful look, it was the other way around!

“Haha, I was lying to you.” Little Jiajia laughed.

“You…’

“Alright, alright, I won’t tease you anymore.” Little Jiajia was afraid that Chu Feng would come looking for her later, so she quickly took out the small box and placed it in front of Song Jingchen. “Look what I brought you.”

“Open it.” Little Jiajia’s eyes sparkled.

Song Jingchen opened it and saw five small white porcelain bottles in the box.

Song Jingchen had seen many porcelain bottles like this. They were usually used to store pills.

Under Little Jiajia’s gaze, he took out the porcelain bottles one by one and realized that there were still small strips of cloth stuck to each bottle. Three of them had the words “One Breath” written on them, and the remaining two were “Living Dead” and “No Breath”.

Song Jingchen was speechless.

Little Jiajia explained proudly, “One Breath is a life-saving medicine. As its name suggests, as long as you’re still alive, you can be saved.”

Song Jingchen was speechless.

“So the Living Dead medicine can let the people who eat them live, but they’re no different from dead?”

“And No Breath can stop someone from breathing?”

Little Jiajia applauded him. “Hubby is so smart. You’re right.” Song Jingchen was speechless. Weren’t these names obvious enough?

“Don’t underestimate these two bottles of poison. Other poison doctors can usually detect signs of poisoning. My mother just developed these two types of poison. Apart from my mother and me, no one can detect it.”

Song Jingchen’s breathing tightened. He didn’t doubt the authenticity of Little Jiajia’s words. He carefully placed the porcelain bottle back in the box and covered it before pushing it in front of Little Jiajia. “This thing is too precious.

Take it back.”

“I still have more. These are for you.” Little Jiajia pushed them back.

“There are many life-saving things. Keep it well. Don’t casually take it out and show it to others in the future.”

Looking at the box that was pushed in front of her again, Little Jiajia was silent. “Why do I have the illusion that we’re just going back and forth here?” she thought.

Song Jingchen was silent. He had also thought of it.

The two of them looked at each other. Little Jiajia burst out laughing. Song Jingchen held it in, but there was still a smile in his eyes.

“Your Highness, Guard Chu is here.” Shi An’s voice came from outside the door.

“They must have realized that I’m not in the courtyard.” Little Jiajia puffed up her cheeks. Although she was reluctant, she remembered her father’s words and stood up. “I have to go. Remember to keep this box well, especially the life-saving pill. It can save the person you want to save.”

With that, she waved at Song Jingchen and left through the window.

Song Jingchen tightened his grip and quickly followed her to the window, but her shadow was gone.

He pursed his lips, unable to hide the disappointment in his eyes.

“By the way.” Little Jiajia suddenly stuck her head through the window. “I forgot to ask just now.. Will you miss me when I leave?”
