Uh-oh! Discovered!

Inside the firewood room, Gu Xiaonan's vacant gaze quickly regained its luster.

He glanced at the hemp rope on his body and pursed his lips. "They thought they could tie me up with such a small rope? They really don't regard me, Gu Xiaonan, highly."

With a gentle tug, the hemp rope snapped.

He called out to Qianxi a few times, but Qianxi remained motionless.

Just then, there was movement on the roof.

Gu Xiaonan immediately looked up, alert.

"Xiaonan, are you both okay?"

It was Feng Yuanxi!

Gu Xiaonan stood up and brushed off the dust from his buttocks. "I'm fine, but Qianxi hasn't woken up yet."

Feng Yuanxi said, "Let her stay here for now. The firewood room is locked. You can climb down from the roof. They won't spot you. Let's go deal with those who harmed you."

"Alright!" Gu Xiaonan nodded.

Feng Yuanxi moved aside a roof tile, revealing an opening that a person could pass through. He lowered a rope.
