Chapter 386 - 387: Leaving Only to Realize the Longing
Pei Huaian left on the third day, and Shao He was listless throughout, and she also moved out from the Fifth Prince’s residence, which was also to avoid others gossiping.
That day, as usual, she returned to the estate from Anji Hall and unexpectedly saw Ah Mo waiting, and she joyfully ran over to ask, "Where’s Pei Huaian?"
"The master has taken on a task and won’t be able to return until half a month later; he specifically instructed me to bring you a gift," Ah Mo handed it over.
Shao He opened it, finding a carved doll that was not just similar to her—it was identical.
Shao He held the doll, feeling a warm sense of comfort inside.
"Did he say anything else? Did he ask you to bring me a message?" Shao He asked again.
Ah Mo shook his head: "No!"
Shao He thought for a moment, put the item away: "I understand!"
Ah Mo smiled, turned, and took his leave.
That night, Shao He placed the doll by her pillow, closed her eyes to sleep, and the extraordinarily handsome yet slightly aloof face appeared in her mind...
The next morning when she woke up, Qingxia came in carrying clean water, and while tidying up the bed, she noticed the carved wooden doll by the pillow and pursed her lips, trying to suppress her laughter.
