Chapter 587: I Have Some Understanding of Overbearing President Novels

Not until the next morning did Lu Xiao leave Linzi. He had spent the whole night talking to Red Eyes about things he'd seen and heard.

Especially about the outside world, the more he talked, the more interested Red Eyes became.

He adamantly refused to let him leave.

Lu Xiao had no other choice. If this had been before, he would have just shrugged off and made a run for it.

But he needed Red Eyes' help to get out afterward, so he had to cajole him cautiously for now.

If he just ditched and ran, and Red Eyes became unhappy and didn't allow him passage, that would be quite troublesome.

"Ah, what a hassle." Back in the courtyard, Lu Xiao flopped onto the bed, his gaze empty and resigned.

In the future, he'd have to visit the grove every three days to chat with Red Eyes about the outside world.

That was the best condition he'd managed to negotiate.

Originally, Red Eyes had planned to have him set up a tent in the woods and stay there for a couple of months.
