“A visitor?” Zu An was confused. What kind of person would visit him at this sort of time?

Could it be the crown princess? No, she’s currently caught up in this huge scheme. There’s no way she would have the leisure to do such a thing.

Maybe it’s Zhuxie Chixin? Did the emperor send him to make sure I knew what to say? But I think we already said everything that needs to be said, right? Also, Zhuxie Chixin doesn’t need to visit me like this, he can just come straight in.

While he was baffled at who the person could be, an ice blue figure in a long dress appeared nearby, surprising him. “Chuyan!”

“Ah Zu!” Chu Chuyan broke out into a small sprint. Only when she saw that her man hadn’t been beaten did she sigh in relief.

“Why are you here?!” Zu An was surprised and happy to see her. He grabbed her small, ice-cold hands.

Chu Chuyan harrumphed and pulled her hand back. Her joy immediately disappeared, returning to her usual coldness. “Who were you expecting? That crown princess of yours?”
