Qianning promptly stood up to leave. Behind her, Aunt Hu spoke, "Miss Qiao, are you going out? It's almost time for dinner."

Pausing in her steps, Qianning replied, "Aunt Hu, could you please let Lady Beigong and the young master know that something has happened at home and I must go back? I will return as soon as possible."

After saying this, she rushed out of the kitchen.
