New Year

Xu Ning left and went straight back to his study.

He completely lied about Master Qu having something for him to do.

The situation was obvious: Chen Ren was dissatisfied with Xu Ning.

If Xu Ning wanted to continue surviving in the Maple Lane Guard Station, he would have to use Qu Dayou's name.

When Xu Ning returned to the small courtyard, he noticed that Pan Du was gone.

He wondered if Pan Du had woken up by himself, or was carried away by someone else.

Anyway, Xu Ning didn't really care. He just went straight back to his study.

An hour later, the city guard who had just sent Feng Sigua to the hospital returned.

He brought over the bill for Feng Sigua's treatment at the hospital.

"Twenty taels…"

Xu Ning took note of the cost of Feng Sigua's treatment.

This was less than Xu Ning expected. It seemed that Feng Sigua's injury might not be as serious as it seemed.
