The next day, Shi Fengju returned to Shi Mansion. Gu Fangzi personally escorted him to the door, unable to hide her reluctance as she said, "Cousin, don't forget your promise!"
Shi Fengju thought to himself, I have never forgotten my promise, but you've never believed it!
"Alright." He smiled faintly, turned around, and left.
As the main gate of Shi Mansion came into view, Shi Fengju rubbed his temple with a headache and shook his head as he stepped inside.
Mrs. Wang was very displeased with her son's behavior for visiting Gu Fangzi before coming home. Seeing his still ruffled expression upon his return, she turned her face away and refused to speak to him. Shi Fengju had no choice but to coax her for a while before she finally cheered up again.
"How is Fangzi doing now?" In the end, Mrs. Wang sighed and asked. Despite being annoyed with her son, she was still more concerned about Gu Fangzi.
Shi Fengju briefly described the situation there.
