The woman standing opposite was clad in fiery red, her beauty unparalleled. Her face was so exquisite it defied gender, and the warm autumn sun, filtering through the dappled shadows of the trees, cast a serene glow upon her, lending an air of timeless tranquility.
Zhang Chunian lowered his head, continuing to feed medicine to the elderly woman who was still coughing, ignoring the red-clad woman at the door.
Ming Li walked slowly into the room and stood not far from Zhang Chunian. Her expression was indifferent as she spoke, "Come with me, and I will heal your mother."
Zhang Chunian: "......?!" He looked up at Ming Li again.
At this moment, Ming Li stood at the doorway, bathed in the light from outside, casting a long shadow.
Zhang Chunian, still kneeling on the ground, looked up at Ming Li and asked, "Who are you?"
Ming Li's expression remained placid. "I am a little fairy from the heavens."
Zhang Chunian: "......?!"
The system within the space: "......?!" It almost dropped the novel in its hand. Its host was becoming more shameless by the day. But it dared not say anything.
Ming Li took Zhang Chunian and his mother to a nearby town, bought a carriage, hired a driver, and headed towards the capital.
By afternoon, the carriage finally arrived at the capital.
Ming Li first had someone take care of Zhang Chunian's mother, then took Zhang Chunian to Prince Yi's mansion. Arriving at the tightly shut gates of Prince Yi's mansion, Ming Li simply grabbed Zhang Chunian and scaled the wall.
Zhang Chunian: "......?!" Utterly bewildered, what kind of audacious move was this?!
Ming Li led Zhang Chunian to the backyard of Prince Yi's mansion and found Prince Yi, Nangong Yi, reading a book.
Sensing someone's arrival, Nangong Yi put down his book and looked up, seeing Ming Li in red and the handsome young man in simple clothes behind her.
When Nangong Yi's gaze shifted from Ming Li to Zhang Chunian beside her, his eyes darkened slightly.
Ming Li noticed Nangong Yi's gaze but offered no explanation.
Ming Li glanced at Zhang Chunian, then at Nangong Yi, who had put down his book. Her tone was casual as she said, "This is the person I found for you. They should be able to help you. Use them as you see fit."
Nangong Yi was taken aback, then flashed a handsome smile and said to Ming Li, "Thank you, A'Li."
Ming Li: "......?!" Looking at Nangong Yi's radiant smile, Ming Li's deep eyes narrowed dangerously, but in the end, she said nothing.
The system, secretly engrossed in a novel within the space, was utterly astonished by Nangong Yi's words.
System: "......?!" Suddenly, the novel in its hand seemed less appealing. What did this cannon fodder want? Was he trying to woo its host, Master?! Absolutely not! Absolutely not! Master belongs to it, and no one can snatch her away!!
The system stopped reading and started shouting within the space, "Host, this man is too shameless! How dare he call you A'Li!"
"He's a toad dreaming of eating swan meat!"
"Host! Beat him up quickly!"
Ming Li: "......?!" Hearing the system's clamor, her lips twitched. What was wrong with this system today?
As the system was shouting, it suddenly found itself unable to make a sound.
System: "......?!" Wuwuwu! It had been silenced by its host!!
