After a while, she heard the sound of water.
About two quarters of an hour.
Qu Tan'er should have finished her bath early, but she did not want to face Mo Liancheng, so she deliberately dragged her time, like when changing into another dress, which also took her quite a while. Listening for a moment, the outer room… was unusually quiet.
She glanced out the window, it was pitch black.
It was the beginning of the month, not even a crescent moon was visible. She guessed that Mo Liancheng must have left by now. She walked to the bed, and began to undo the bed curtains to rest. Feeling something strange, she suddenly turned around, only to be stunned. There indeed was a man in white, gracefully leaning on the screen, smiling faintly... Hadn't he left?
Qu Tan'er frowned and stood still, staring at Mo Liancheng.
She really felt that his... behavior was becoming stranger and stranger.
