Guo Jing accompanied Qiu Chuji and his eighteen disciples, among them were Li Zhichang, Yin Zhiping, Xia Zhicheng, Yu Zhike, Zhang Zhizsu, Wang Zhiming, and Song Defang. When they went out of the palace, they saw Huang Rong and the three elders, Lu, Jian, and Liang, as well as about a thousand Beggar Clan disciples all on horseback, waiting outside the palace.

As soon as she saw Guo Jing leave the palace, Huang Rong slapped her horse to move forward, smiling she asked ”Is everything all right?”

Guo Jing smiled, ”My luck is not bad; Qiu Daozhang [Taoist Priest] arrived just in time, changing the Great Khan's mood to the better,” he said.

Huang Rong paid her respects to Qiu Chuji, then she asked Guo Jing again, ”I was afraid the Great Khan would kill you in his wrath, I took everybody here ready to rescue you. What did the Great Khan say? Did he agree to cancel your betrothal?”

Guo Jing hesitated for half a day before replying, ”I did not ask.”

”Why?” Huang Rong was startled.

”Rong'er, please don't get angry,” Guo Jing said, ”It was because …” Right then Princess Huazheng rushed out of the palace, loudly called out, ”Guo Jing Gege [big brother – a term of endearment].”

As soon as she saw her, Huang Rong's face changed immediately. She quickly mounted her horse and galloped away. Guo Jing was about to open his mouth to explain, when Huazheng pulled his hand and said, ”Weren't you surprised I came here? Are you happy to see me?”

Guo Jing nodded, he turned his head to see Huang Rong, but she had already disappeared. Huazheng only had her eyes to Guo Jing, she did not notice Huang Rong at all; she held his hand, laughing, giggling and telling him how much she missed him.

Guo Jing secretly groaned, ”Rong'er must think it was because I saw Huazheng that I did not ask the Great Khan to cancel my betrothal.” He was silent and did not hear what Huazheng was saying.

A moment later Huazheng realized Guo Jing was in a daze, she was offended, ”What's the matter with you? I came from far away just to see you and you do not pay any attention to me?”

”Meizi [younger sister – term of endearment],” Guo Jing said, ”I have a very important matter I need to take care of, we will talk when I come back.” Without waiting for her answer he assigned his personal guard to take care of Qiu Chuji, then hurriedly he went back to his camp, looking for Huang Rong.
