After a round of agreement, Gu Shiyi and Situ Jing finally decided to settle the matter with Ning Qingqing first. As for Qing Ming, under the strong request of the two of them, he reluctantly decided to return to Southern City's Qinghua Temple.

Gu Shiyi didn't feel at ease with Gu Doctor staying alone at Qinghua Temple at such a young age, but it wasn't easy for Situ Jing to have a chance to be alone with Gu Shiyi, so he didn't want to be with such a lightbulb by his side.

But before that, Gu Shiyi wanted to see Lan Yenao again. No matter what, in her heart, she still hoped to have a father.

Gu Shiyi did not enter through the main entrance of the Duke's Palace. Instead, she was carried by Situ Jing as she used a lightness skill to fly to the entrance of Lan Yenao's study.

The hidden guards who had been guarding the surroundings of the study room flew out when they saw someone intruding. They pulled out their swords and glared at Situ Jing.

But when one of them saw what Gu Shiyi looked like, their first reaction was to throw away the sharp sword in their hands. When the others saw this, they reacted as well, and in a moment, they returned to their original spots dejectedly.

Lan Yenao's martial arts skills were above all the secret guards outside the study room, so when someone barged in, he was the first to notice them, but he did not care at all when someone barged in. The secret guards that he raised were not raised for nothing, thus he continued with his daily work as usual.

However, Lan Yenao could clearly feel the murderous intent that the group of hidden guards was emitting when they were facing the intruder, but why didn't he feel anything in that short amount of time.

Could it be that the intruders killed those dark guards with a single slash? But why didn't he hear any sounds of fighting? Could it be that his opponent had reached the pinnacle of martial arts and was even stronger than him?

While Lan Yenao was deep in thought, the door to the study room was suddenly pushed open from the outside. Lan Yenao thought that the intruder was someone, and instinctively stood up with his eyes filled with defenses, but the next person he saw was the person he had been dreaming to see, Gu Shiyi.

When Lan Yenao saw Gu Shiyi, his gaze immediately became gentle. Gu Shiyi stood at the entrance just like that, and looked at Lan Yenao.

This was the first time in her two lifetimes that she had a father. But now, when Gu Shiyi was facing Lan Yenao, she didn't even know what the first thing she said to him was supposed to be.

"It's cold outside, come in quickly!"

Only then did he realize that he should have let Gu Shiyi in first, and he hurriedly walked to the door. He wanted to pull Gu Shiyi's hand to let her in, but he also realized that Gu Shiyi wasn't like Lan Muchen, who was still just a child, and that it wasn't appropriate for him to do this, so he could only stand at the door, not knowing where to place his hands, with a foolish smile on his face.

Lan Yenao felt as if he was in a dream. He thought that he had already lost Gu Shiyi, but who would have thought that she was actually standing in front of him right now.

Never in his dreams did he expect that he, Waner, and his daughter would suddenly have less regrets in his life, and this made him suddenly feel that the heavens were not so heartless to him after all.

Gu Shiyi lowered her head, her face blushing as she walked into the study, and sat down at the desk opposite of Lan Yenao's office.

Before Lan Yenao closed the door, he did not forget to tell the servants to hurry up and get the kitchen to prepare the ginger soup, the easy and light midnight snack and the easy way out.

Gu Shiyi had her back to Lan Yenao, and as she listened to his low and deep voice give instructions to the servants, a warm feeling suddenly spread from the bottom of her heart.

He had merely been standing outside for a short while, yet Lan Yenao had already asked his servants to prepare the ginger soup and even sent for Doctor Sun.

Furthermore, the midnight snacks he had his servants prepare were all light and easy to digest, and they even had the effect of sleeping soundly.

Lan Yenao's meticulous instructions and instructions, to Gu Shiyi's ears, were filled with concern and concern.

Gu Shiyi finally understood why her biological father was Lan Yenao.

Suddenly, a cup of hot tea was placed in front of Gu Shiyi. She looked up and saw that it was actually Lan Yenao who had personally brought it to her.

Gu Shiyi was a Regent with great authority in Great Yu Kingdom, it had always been someone else serving and flattering him. It was probably that even the empress dowager had not tasted the tea that he personally brought!

"I don't know what kind of tea you like to drink, but when Waner was alive, she only liked to drink white water. After so many years, I had gotten used to the taste of white water, so I could only pour you white water!"

Lan Yenao returned to his seat, thinking that Gu Shiyi had only looked at him after lifting the lid of the teacup, so he explained patiently.

"I like drinking plain water too!"

Gu Shiyi lifted the lid and sure enough, it was a cup of clear white water, which was still steaming hot, and her heart felt unspeakably warm. What she did not find, was that her habit of not loving tea, was actually the same as her parents'.

After taking a sip of the white water, Gu Shiyi felt an exceptionally sweet and warm heart. This was probably the best water she had ever tasted!

Lan Yenao looked at Gu Shiyi's satisfied expression, and the nervousness in her heart calmed down. He was really afraid, how could Gu Shiyi not like it?

Right at that moment, the door to the study was knocked. It turned out that midnight snack was already prepared.

Under Lan Yenao's consent, the door opened once again. More than ten richly dressed maids carried boxes of food and entered the side hall of the study, placing the food on top of them one by one before leaving.

As Gu Shiyi looked at the table full of all kinds of small things, he suddenly felt that the life in Regent Palace was indeed not something that Prince Su could compare to.

The most eye-catching thing on the table was the cup of ginger soup. Under Lan Yenao's request, Gu Shiyi obediently picked up the ginger soup and started to gulp down the soup.

But when the ginger soup entered her mouth, Gu Shiyi realised that this ginger soup, was not a simple ginger soup, other than the ginger inside, there were at least 10 other types of herbs that could warm the palace and nourish the stomach.

Although she did not understand the true intention of this bowl of ginger soup, Gu Shiyi still finished it.

Then, Sun Jinxing's voice came out from outside the door asking for an audience. Lan Yenao said that before eating, he had to check his pulse so that there were ingredients that were not suitable for him within the food.

didn't find anything unexpected when he looked at Gu Shiyi. Long ago, on the night of Gu Shiyi's poison attack, he had already discerned the unusual relationship between Gu Shiyi and Lan Yenao. And later on, he found out from the discussions of the servants that Gu Shiyi was actually Lan Yenao's daughter.

On the contrary, as Gu Shiyi looked at Sun Jinxing, she had a lot of questions.
