"I'll head to the Prime Minister's Residence right away."

Just as Luo Feng was about to leave, he suddenly turned back. "Your Highness, since you mentioned Miss Yu, I do have something concerning her that I think I should tell you."

Chu Yun blinked. "What is it?"

"I answered truthfully," Luo Feng replied.

Chu Yun's expression darkened slightly. After several seconds of silence, he said, "Alright, I understand. Go."

"Yes."

Luo Feng then headed for the Prime Minister's Residence.

In a flash, Ye Tun ran off without a trace.

Chu Yun sat there alone, countless thoughts churning through his mind before finally turning into a sigh.

He could not let this drive a wedge
