Chapter 397: The Demon's Gratitude (20)

The next day, Su Li woke up quite late.

Having roamed around someone's mansion in the dark the night before, she slept in until the sun was high in the sky.

When she got up and opened her room door, she discovered that the atmosphere in the mansion had become much more serious.

All the maids and servants were tense, hurrying about. Even the gatekeeper, who usually loved to chat and joke, had a tight expression on his face.

It seemed that something significant had happened.

Su Li, with a puzzled expression, wondered what she had missed by oversleeping.

Luckily, Jinbao, the little cutie, was there to clear her confusion.

Before Su Li could ask, Jinbao had already quietly rattled off the morning's events.

"Early this morning, the master left the house for a while. When he returned, he instructed us to stay inside and not to go out, saying that something serious had happened in the city."
