When Zhan Xiaolou found Dong, he was blocked by Auntie Hua in a house on the other side of the building. Auntie Hua was holding his hand as they asked about the scenery of the first floor. When they saw Zhan Xiaolou appear, Dong let out a sigh of relief.

"Dong, it's already late today. Tomorrow morning, I will enter the palace and be done with it. So, I want you to feel wronged and take a rest here tonight."

Just as Zhan Xiaolou finished speaking, Dong subconsciously opened his mouth to say that she was here. Jing Hong had given her the token for entering the palace on the first floor. With the token, she could enter the palace at any time.

However, since Zhan Xiaolou said tomorrow, she agreed. The most important thing was, seeing that Zhan Xiaolou was here to discuss business with her, Auntie Hua immediately left with her fat body.

After Aunty Hua left, Ah Dong lifted his hand to wipe the sweat off his forehead. Zhan Xiaolou realized that Ah Dong was still sweating during the winter.

"Isn't that a bit too exaggerated? Although I know that Auntie Hua is quite passionate, but you …"

Because of Zhan Xiaotao's direct and disdainful gaze, Ah Dong stopped wiping his sweat. She smiled and shook her head, saying, "You're really being too cordial. Is this the mother of your second husband?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

Zhan Xiaotao looked at Dong with a puzzled expression. If she hadn't guessed wrongly, the first floor should have already investigated her background before coming to find her. Then, why would they ask now?

"It's nothing, I'm just curious about her son …"

Before Ah Dong could finish his words, Zhan Xiaolou had already understood. This Ah Dong really was him!

"Of course not. Hua Ruo's personality is similar to his father, and she looks the same as well. Didn't you see her before?"

Zhan Xiaolou didn't want to discuss his future husband with Ah Dong. After saying this, he called Uncle Wen and was about to call Uncle Wen to take Ah Dong to the front courtyard to rest. As they were walking out of the room, Zhan Xiaolou ran into Hua Ruo and Qu Li who were about to leave.

"You are leaving?"

It was already getting late and Zhan Xiaolou had already returned. Naturally, Qu Jing wanted to leave. Even though the marriage between the two had already been decided, they were still unmarried and living together was a bit shameful.

As for Hua Ruo, she had to accompany Gu Li every day for the past few days. Now that he had left, he naturally had to return home. Fortunately, his house was next door and very close.

"Mm, it's getting late, we should return. Tomorrow, I will come by carriage to pick you up, and then we will enter the palace together."

Although he didn't like this person, he still wanted to be the legal husband in the future. His mother had recently found someone to teach him these things and he wanted to learn how to treat people.

With that thought, he turned to Dong and said, "You can stay here without worry. It's very quiet here."

On the other hand, Zhan Xiaolou was very satisfied with his performance. She said to him, "I saw that you brought two attendants here, why don't you stay for a bit. We have guests here tonight, so I've called Auntie Hua to accompany us."

"Of course."

The two of them didn't treat Zhan Xiaolou's family as other people's family. Instead, they acted like 'this is my family', which made Dong understand that Zhan Xiaolou liked this kind of comfort and nature.

As for his second young master, when he first met Zhan Xiaolou, he bullied her like that. Later on, he used Zhan Xiaolou as a savior and treated her as his savior. Their relationship was too polite and awkward to deal with, so was this the reason why his second young master couldn't marry Zhan Xiaolou?
