Since it was an urgent gathering, Xu Rouguang had to leave the building for the hunt. Even if he wasn't fully confident in letting Lai Mingjie out of his sight, he chose to trust Lai Mingjie like he had never done anything stupid behind his back. There were never any problems when it came to other women, but he had met with his sentinels before. This had led to problems, and Xu Rouguang wouldn't want another accident. Truly, it was good enough Chartreuse never reported his meeting with Wenrou.
Minutes after the general had left, Lai Mingjie hopped off of his bed and put on some clothes to leave the floor. He went to the top floor and entered the emporium for heavenly items. Since he had been going there with Xu Rouguang, the shopkeeper felt free to transact with him. She sold him everything he asked for... even if it was strange for a demon to procure those items. Then again, remembering General Xu, the shopkeeper thought it was for the deathless general instead.
