Nianzu got ready for the examination. Chuntao handed him the cloth bag in which she had put two brushes, two bamboo holders for ink, a few ink sticks, and a handkerchief.
"Chun, I will be relaxed if you accompany me to the examination ground," Nianzu expressed his desire.
"Are you scared that something might happen to me if I stay alone?" Chuntao asked.
"Yes," Nianzu answered. "I will then be fully concentrated on the exam. You can wait for me," Nianzu stated as he held Chuntao's hands.
"Okay," Chuntao passed him a smile. Internally, she did not feel good. Because of her, Nianzu was undergoing so much pain. Last night, she heard the conversation between Nianzu and Huo Jin, which she was not supposed to hear.
