Upon hearing this, Zhou Gu didn't feel wronged. He promptly agreed, bid farewell to Xie Yuan, and returned to his lodging.
After Zhou Gu left, Xie Yuan fiercely massaged his forehead before he too went to rest.
When Zhou Gu arrived back at his lodging, he saw the light on inside. Su Rong was already lying on the bed. The floor was heated to the point that she only wore a thin garment. The blanket covered her waist, exposing her upper body. The button at her collar was unfastened, revealing a small amount of her skin. Her skin was white and smooth.
Zhou Gu only took one look before averting his eyes and standing in the doorway, blushing and unable to step into the room.
Su Rong hadn't fallen asleep and was waiting for Zhou Gu. Hearing footsteps, she turned her head and saw Zhou Gu standing at the door, looking nervous and flustered, "What's wrong? What did Uncle Xie say to you? Why do you look like this?"
Zhou Gu didn't say anything.
