Zuan had a headache, thinking that if this burden was always by his side, how could he have any fun?
Murong Qinghe, standing to the side, was also somewhat puzzled, thinking that the relationship between Brother Chu and his brother-in-law was far too good. Could it be because he lacked male playmates of the same age since childhood?
"Don't just think about playing all day. If you neglect your cultivation and studies, your sister will come after me next time," Zu An said sternly. It's so nice to be an elder. Even though he doesn't want this burden, he can still use a high-sounding reason to achieve his goal.
"It's so annoying, why are you acting like an old man too?" Chu Youzhao pouted, clearly unhappy.
Just then, a weak voice came from the doorway outside: "Is Lord Zu here?"
Zuan turned around and saw two people standing at the door. The older one had a serious expression, while the other boy had a gloomy demeanor.
"So it's Brother Gao and Brother Han, please come in quickly." Zu An recognized the two as Gao Ying from the Liu family and Pei You from the Pei family. Speaking of which, the two were really lucky. When the sky collapsed and the earth cracked in the secret realm, they hid somewhere and survived.

"Hey, you two usually act all high and mighty, but you've changed your tune today?" Both of them are from well-known families in the capital, so Chu Youzhao and Murong Qinghe naturally recognized them.
The two sides belong to different groups, so naturally they don't get along.
Gao Ying said calmly, "Lord Zu saved our lives, so of course we should be respectful. We came here today to invite Lord Zu out for a drink to express our gratitude."
Chu Youzhao's eyes lit up immediately: "Drinking? I want to go too."
Pei You frowned. He usually disliked people from the Qi King's lineage, but considering that the other party's sister was Zu An's wife, he did not refuse: "You can go, but it might be inconvenient for Miss Murong to go."
"Why?" Murong Qinghe raised her eyebrows. She was a well-known tough girl in the army, and she only kept a quiet demeanor in front of Chu Youzhao.
Pei You snorted and didn't explain. Gao Ying, who was standing to the side, tried to smooth things over: "Because we're going to Hongxiuzhao later, and it's not very convenient for young ladies to go to such a place."
