He happened to see Zhu Jiayu on the street, and he couldn't explain what he was thinking. By the time he came to his senses, he had already followed Zhu Jiayu to Xingyunfang.
He followed Zhu Jiayu up to the third floor, but when he looked around, he couldn't see anyone. Just as he turned to go downstairs, he was suddenly grabbed from behind, and the next instant, a cold dagger was pressed against his neck.
At the same time, the girl's warm fragrance made his ears turn slightly red.
"It's you?"
Zhu Jiayu recognized the thief following him and suspiciously sheathed her dagger: "What are you trying to do, sneaking up behind me like that?"
Wei Qinglou suddenly came to his senses. After the fever subsided on his face, he frowned and said, "Shouldn't I be asking you that? What are you doing in a place like this, a place full of all sorts of people, a young lady?"

Zhu Jiayu didn't have time to wait for him. She only asked one question, and when Wei Qinglou didn't answer, she went downstairs by herself and walked towards the side courtyard of Xingyunfang.
Seeing this, Wei Qinglou steeled his heart and followed.
In short... if Zhu Jiayu were to do anything to him, he didn't believe that a grown man like him couldn't resist a delicate young girl!
In the side courtyard, the maid, knowing Zhu Jiayu's preferences, had already placed the wine pot by the pond.
Zhu Jiayu walked to the edge of the pond, sat down on the ground, took off her shoes, and was about to put her bare feet into the water when Wei Qinglou swiftly scooped them up.
"Are you even a girl?"
Wei Qinglou was absolutely furious!
