"Why lock the door when you're reading?"

"What does it matter to you if I lock the door while reading?"

Lu Jincheng was left speechless by the retort and ultimately decided not to bother with Ji Yao. After all, as long as these days of illness passed, perhaps she would become obedient again and not always think about running away.

Lu Jincheng didn't respond and left the room, closing the door behind him.
