### Li Changge

Seeing Mimi's close resemblance to her mother, Changge asks Sun to keep Mimi by her side. Sun grants her wish but remarked that Changge should be careful with gifts here, especially the ones with eyes and ears, implying that Mimi might be a mole.

Mimi is grateful to Changge and, in return, saves Changge's life from her high fever. However, upon discovering that Li Changge is a woman, she is extremely disappointed for thinking that she had found a dependable gentlemen. Changge calms her, promising that she will do anything she can to protect both of them among the Turks.

While Changge is on her strategist duty, Mimi is responsible for taking care of Changge's health and doing the chores. She gradually becomes a mother-figure for Changge, even protective of her when she has her first period during a meeting with Sun and Mujin.

The two even imagined their lives together, dressing up and going out as two young ladies. After burying Mimi, the defeated and devastated lies openly on the ground, never returning to Sun's khaganate and is assumed missing.
