After leaving the pavilion, the four of them made their way to Noah's house, with three of them following behind him. On the way, Shisan looked around everywhere vigilantly for any kind of ambush or attack.
Although they did not face any ambush, they did receive many judging looks from the people in the area. Everyone knew about the famous mortal singing courtesan, which seemed unattainable to others. But now, seeing her follow behind a young man and a weird-looking man, they started talking among themselves and making rumors.
Song Liu looked a little sad, but she did not care much about their words. Being a courtesan for some time, even though in name, she got used to this kind of criticism and scrutiny.
Fortunately, their journey was safe and free of any kind of danger. In a short while, the four of them stood in front of Noah's rented house. Looking at the luxurious and well-maintained house, Wu Han and the girls looked at Noah with a surprised look on their faces.
"For the last time, keep your mouth shut!" Seeing Noah's sharp eyes, Wu Han rolled his eyes.
"Yea, yea, I know. You think I don't know how to behave in front of others?"
"No!" Wu Han received two separate replies from Noah and Shisan, causing him to feel a little annoyed. He snorted coldly and walked towards the door before knocking on it.
*Knock!*
*Creak~*
In a couple of breaths, after he knocked on the door, Wu Han watched the door open slowly. As the door opened, his eyes landed on the beautiful black-haired woman donned in a light blue outfit standing gracefully in front of them.
"Welcome everyone. My name is Xin Yan, nice to meet you." With a warm smile on her face, Xin Yan greeted everyone Noah brought.
"Oh! Wow!! Now that's a reason for me to break my seclusion." Seeing the warm smile on Xin Yan's face, Wu Han spoke up without even thinking.
~Woosh!~
Seeing the sweet smile on her face, Shisan also smiled behind her mask.
"Take a seat; I will bring some tea." After entering the hall, Xin Yan settled them on the sofa before walking out for some fresh tea.
"Now you know how to behave." Noah turned his attention to Wu Han, who was sneakingly walking inside the hall looking for Xin Yan in fear.
"Why didn't you tell me the woman living with you is this scary?" Seeing that Xin Yan was not present in the room, Wu Han sat beside Noah before asking.
*Smack*
Noah answered Wu Han with an illusionary slap made of Qi on the back of his head.
"What was I saying all the way before coming here?" Noah's cold glare bore into Wu Han's body, who was slumped on the floor.
"I am sorry, looking at her, I forgot everything you told me."
*Smack*
"Ouch, Stop! I will not say anything." Wu Han moved away from Noah. As much as he wanted to fight back, he did not want to offend Xin Yan once again by destroying her furniture.
"Sit back properly if you don't want to be planted into the ground once again," Noah warned Wu Han. He turned his face towards Elysia, who was flying into the room, enjoying the live drama.
"So tell me all you know about the explosion." Hearing Noah change the topic, Wu Han's face also became serious.
"I want you to tell me why you want to know about that explosion. That explosion occurred very far away from this place, and don't tell me you are afraid." Wu Han looked at Noah with caution while sitting back on the sofa.
Noah started thinking if it was a good idea to tell him about something like this or not, but before he could speak, someone else spoke up.
"The guy who exploded was spying on us.'' Xin Yan, who entered the room with a hot pot of tea, answered the question in Noah's stead. The girls and Wu Han looked at her in shock.
