Back at the manor, it was already late at night. Most people in the manor were already asleep, with only a few night guards patrolling.
Ye Qing and Huangfu Ziyu returned directly to the courtyard where they lived. Throughout the process, their fingers were interlocked tightly, unwilling to part even slightly. Just as they reached the door and were about to enter, the lights inside suddenly turned on.
"Who is it?" Ye Qing and Huangfu Ziyu simultaneously called in a low voice. This was their courtyard; who else would be in their room at this time?
Slowly, the sound of footsteps approached, and the door was gently opened. A head with a side-parted hairstyle peeked out, it was none other than Old Wang Ba.
Old Wang Ba stuck his head out, looked around, and seeing only Ye Qing and Huangfu Ziyu outside, seemed to relax a bit. He whispered, "What were you two up to? I've been waiting for you forever. Hurry up and come in, hurry up!"
