Mu Wanhua gave him one last lingering look before reluctantly leaving the room.
The butler was still standing outside and hadn't left. Upon seeing her come out, he casually asked, "Has the second young master woken up?"
"He's awake now." Mu Wanhua nodded, and after thinking about it, added two more words, "Thank you."
The butler shook his head, indicating it was unnecessary.

As dusk fell, the dark night slowly descended.
Huo Jingting came back from outside, and as soon as he entered, he heard a commotion coming from the wardrobe.
He raised his hand to loosen his tie, unbuttoning his shirt as he pushed open the wardrobe door.
But the scene that greeted him when he opened it made his face involuntarily darken, the air filled with low pressure.
"Gu Nanqiao," he called out in a mock-cold tone, "don't you think you owe me an explanation of what you're doing."
