The two people in the room woke up instantly. Zu An asked in a low voice, "What do we do?"
"What else can we do? Hurry up and go out the window!" Chu Chuyan was almost crying with anxiety. She helped him find his clothes while pushing him out, and said while looking towards the door, "Mother, wait a moment."
Zuan said, "Actually, you can just tell your mother. Anyway, we are a proper husband and wife, so don't make it seem like we're having an affair."
"No way!" Chu Chuyan rejected the idea outright. Their relationship had developed too quickly. She could only secretly allow him to come over, which was already her limit. How could she possibly sleep together openly?
Zuan was speechless, but knowing that she was shy, he didn't want to make things difficult for her.
At the same time, he also thought that if the fact that he slept with Chu Chuyan was exposed, Old Man Mi would definitely know that his body had recovered, and he would definitely become suspicious.
He didn't know what Old Man Mi's purpose was, and he was worried that something unpredictable might happen if he found out, so he simply agreed to maintain this underground relationship with Chu Chuyan.
He hastily dressed and jumped out of the window.
Chu Chuyan then opened the door: "Mother, why did you come so early?"
"I was a little worried about your health, and I also had some insomnia last night, so I decided to come and see you." Qin Wanru looked at her daughter and liked her more and more. She had a good personality, was filial, had high cultivation, and was so beautiful. She was simply a perfect daughter.
"I'm fine..." Chu Chuyan said, blushing.
Qin Wanru followed her into the house, then suddenly sniffed the air: "Huh, what's that smell..."
"No..." Chu Chuyan was extremely embarrassed. She had been fooling around with Zu An until late last night, and there was still an ambiguous atmosphere left in the room.
Seeing her daughter's panicked expression, Qin Wanru's heart stirred. As someone who had been through it all, how could she not understand? "Did your great-grandfather come to treat your injuries again last night?"
"Hmm..." Chu Chuyan lowered her head, not knowing what to say.
"Sigh, I don't even know what to say to you anymore. What a tragic fate." Qin Wanru sighed with some anger at her daughter's lack of ambition. Such an excellent daughter had been ruined by that little rascal. As a mother, it pained her to think about it.
At the same time, she was also puzzled. Her daughter was usually arrogant and haughty, and had looked down on so many outstanding young talents in the past. Why did she take a liking to this guy, Zu'an, who didn't have any merits...
Thinking of this, her face stiffened, and she suddenly felt that what she said was not quite right. A scene from before appeared in her mind.
Her expression instantly became somewhat awkward, and she quickly changed the subject: "Chu Yan, I came here today to discuss the matter of receiving the salt permits in advance..."
Zuan went back to sleep for a while, and after some time, he heard Chu Huanzhao's voice in his ear:
"Lazy brother-in-law, get up quickly, you'll be late for school."
Upon hearing that he would be late for school, Zaun snapped awake with a start; those words had been a nightmare for years in the previous world.
But he quickly came to his senses: "I've already time-traveled, why do I care about going to school?"
Besides, I'm a teacher now, so what am I afraid of going to school?
So he lay back down on the bed.
Seeing him get up and then go back to sleep, Chu, who was sitting by the bed, was so angry that he gritted his teeth: "You stinky brother-in-law, get up already."
"Hey, don't bother me, let me sleep a little longer." Zuan waved his hand lazily.
He had been working hard all night yesterday, and in addition to the past two weeks of revelry with Zheng Dan, it was only thanks to the fact that his body had been tempered by the Primordial Chaos Sutra and become extraordinary that he was able to survive; otherwise, he would have been reduced to ashes long ago.
Even so, he still felt very tired when he woke up in the morning.
"Sigh, if only I knew a dual cultivation technique." Zu An thought of a novel he had read in his previous life, in which a guy surnamed Song relied on that technique to become stronger the more he fought, and he was truly envious and jealous.
"Still sleeping? You're really going to be late!" Chu Huanzhao got annoyed and reached out to grab his blanket, making a move to pull it off. "I'm pulling off the blanket!"
Zuan kept his eyes closed and muttered to himself, "Go ahead and lift it, I'm not wearing any clothes anyway."
Chu Huanzhao froze, a blush spreading across her face: "You...you're being a pervert."
Zuan couldn't help but laugh: "I was clearly sleeping in my own bed, covered with a blanket. You were the one who pulled my blanket off, so how did it become me being a pervert?"
"I..." Chu Huanzhao was speechless for a moment, but she was not stupid and immediately reacted, "Nonsense, you were clearly wearing clothes when you sat up just now."
Her antics woke Zuan up, and he opened his eyes to look at the angry girl in front of him. He couldn't help but tease her, "I am wearing clothes, but I am not wearing pants."
Chu Huanzhao: "..."
She couldn't help but think of the scene she had witnessed yesterday, which she had even dreamed about last night.
Thinking about this, she felt like steam was rising from her head.
"What's wrong with you?" Zu'an asked, noticing her sudden change in behavior.
"You big pervert!" Chu spat and then ran away quickly.
Seeing her panicked expression, Zu An chuckled to himself. Teasing his sister-in-law was quite amusing.
Distracted like that, Zuan had no choice but to get up.
After all, his absence from the academy for so long, whether as a student or a teacher, was a serious dereliction of duty. If it weren't for Jiang Luofu as his backer, anyone else would probably have been dealt with by the academy long ago.
So I still need to show my face at the academy. Didn't that old man Mi ask him to steal something from the Wei family? It's a good opportunity to get to know Wei Suo and see if there's any chance.
On the way to school, Chu Huanzhao didn't say a word to him. Several times Zu An tried to chat with her, but she would quickly walk away whenever she saw him approaching.
