Following Yun Yang’s directions, Song Juyao walked towards the Academy of Sciences, only to find the path far longer than she anticipated. After walking for more than ten minutes, she did not see the shadow of Cangwu Courtyard. Even more surprising, she encountered maids, servants, and patrolling soldiers along the way, but no one came to stop her.
The sky darkened, and the wind intensified, whipping Song Juyao's long hair around her and causing her skirt to billow. She stopped and looked at the sky. It seemed that it was going to rain heavily. However, having come this far without seeing Duke Murphy and confirming whether or not he was Jiang Baiqi, she felt a little unwilling...
With this thought, Song Juyao gritted her teeth and continued forward, hoping that the sky would hold out a little longer and the rain would not fall so quickly.
