Upon seeing this, Pei Zhi chuckled and said, "Let's close the door. With this heavy rain, no one will come out."
Lu Xiuyuan blushed slightly and closed the door.
Lu Xiuyuan sat down, unbuttoned his clothes, revealing most of his chest.
Pei Zhi stood in front of Lu Xiuyuan, carefully examining his wounds.
So white... no, she's badly injured.
How did you get hurt?

Pei Zhi tried to persuade Lu Xiuyuan: "Even if it's for your mother's sake, you won't lose out by marrying me."

Pei Zhi had always been curious about why Lu Xiuyuan rejected her, but she never expected that Lu Xiuyuan was thinking of her.
