When he got out of the car, Xu Shuo couldn't help but admonish, "Be careful."
The soldiers confined them to a few rooms, splitting about a dozen men between two cells. Because Gu Nanqiao was a woman, they prepared a simple, solitary room just for her.
Inside was a bed that looked like it had seen many years, surrounded by a mess of clutter.
After such a long journey and facing dangers, Gu Nanqiao also felt tired.
But in these conditions, there was absolutely no way to relax and sleep soundly.
Danger was everywhere, and with no one by her side, she had to remain highly vigilant at all times.
Gu Nanqiao walked over and sat on the bed, leaning against the spotty and decrepit wall, squinting her eyes for a moment.
She had no idea where Huo Jingting was at the moment.
Would he be angry with her in his oddly standoffish way if he knew she was here?

After eating, Huo Jingting sat outside for a while before getting up from his chair, preparing to go back.
