Chapter 98: Sir, Please Calm Down

Lang Wu County was known for its mountainous strongholds and abundant fog, and darkness came quickly after dusk.

The locals rose at sunrise and rested at sunset, and their nightly activities were mainly either making children or disciplining them. Therefore, the streets were quiet and shadowy after dark, and timid individuals might not dare to walk in the thick fog at night.

The street where the Red Sleeve Pavilion was located was an exception, brightly lit and filled with laughter and chatter until midnight.

Those who frequented the area were daring, unbothered by traveling at night. The two red lanterns hanging high at the Red Sleeve Pavilion served as a beacon in the dark, guiding them to their haven.

The Zhu Mansion remained sealed off pending investigation. The Madam, along with her maids, had moved to a nearby residence. The red front gate was slowly pushed open, its creaking sound especially grating in the quiet night.
