So, they’re still not going to let him off the hook!

Well, if it’s inevitable tomorrow morning, it’s inevitable tomorrow morning. At least he has tonight to think about how to get out of this lie. It’s slightly better than being pushed onto the execution platform right now.

Fan Wenxuan’s lips twitch slightly as he stands up, flinging his sleeves in frustration.

Chu Jinnian yawns, rubbing his tired eyes and setting aside the book he was reading.

After several days of rush, he’s quite tired.

But before sleeping, he feels uneasy if he doesn’t check on Zhuang Qingning who is still unconscious.

Chu Jinnian casually puts on a coat.

However, he turns back just as he steps out of the room.

Fan Wenxuan’s words had indeed reminded him that even if he cared and kept thinking about it, he needs to be aware of propriety. Otherwise, he would not only be worse than a beast to himself, but Zhuang Qingning might also say something even harsher.

Chu Jinnian returns to the room, sends people to inquire about Zhuang Qingning’s condition. Once he learns that her condition is not serious and she is just sleeping as usual, he finally feels relieved and goes to bed.

The morning light is dim, birdsong pleasing to the ear.

Zhuang Qingning regains consciousness slowly, awake at last.

However, her eyelids are heavy, laborious to lift. Her head feels as if it weighs a thousand pounds, making her extremely uncomfortable with just a slight sway.

Zhuang Qingning instinctively lifts her hand to her forehead, wanting to ease her discomfort by rubbing her temples.

However, she seems to have lifted something, which blinds her instantly.

What is this thing!

Zhuang Qingning struggles to remove whatever is covering her head and sits up in the process.

It looks like a piece of clothing.

And it seems to be men’s clothing.

But why is there men’s clothing here?

And where exactly is here…

Zhuang Qingning looks at the unfamiliar surroundings, her heart sinking.

Could it be… she has time-travelled again?

[Pfft, host, you’re overthinking.]

[In case of another time-cross, for a living body like the host who has been through the system, you should report to the system management bureau and get assigned a location. It would not be this quiet.]

That’s a relief then.

Zhuang Qingning breathes a sigh of relief.

At least she doesn’t need to bid farewell to the people in this world, the people who she doesn’t want to part with.

But, where is she now, and how did she get here?

[Well, host, why don’t you think back carefully?]

Think back?

Zhuang Qingning tilts her head thoughtfully.

Yes, last night, she was fighting with those two thieves, her life hanging by a thread. At the most critical moment, she seemed to have executed a special move, which was interrupted by a man who appeared to rescue her from the knives of the thieves. After that, she felt dizzy and clung to the man’s sleeve who rescued her…

In conclusion, she seems to have been brought here by the man who saved her. After she fainted, she still clung to his sleeve so he had to take off his coat. That’s why there is a man’s coat next to her hand…

This…
