Dong Gong Ruoshu turned around and said:
"I'm going up with Xiao Chan. If it's necessary, you can keep watch outside tonight."
With that, Dong Gong Ruoshu pushed open the door to her chamber.
Xiao Chan hurriedly followed after her.

Dong Gong Ruoshu furrowed her brows and murmured to herself:
"I know."
