From Wei Lian's mouth, these two escapees turn into the story of a damsel-in-distress and her knight-in-shinning armor.
Wei Yi Yi, after a small greeting, separated from Jiang Liu and venture into the outskirts of the forest and ultimately got lost like a small lamb.
Thankfully, Jiang Liu who was meeting with his good 'friend', Wei Lian, to do their scouting, got worried and decided to return and escort back the empress first.
That's when they realize that the empress entered into the forest and track her until they saw her being chased by the foxes.
"You got chased by wild animals?!"
Jiang Yu once again scan Wei Yi Yi. Due to his stern personality, concerns and worries are often expressed by anger, but right now, the 'teachings' he was so ready to impart to her melted and instead, he wanted to comfort her.
In respond to Wei Lian's story, both Wei Yi Yi and Jiang Liu expression turn pale in disgust.
'The story is so far fetched it's fvkng cringe all over!'
It's always a misconception that people are lowering themselves when saying 'thank yous' and 'sorrys'. If it's me, I wanted my superior to be able to give praise and credits when due and not just pass the blames.
