Tan Rou made her way to the backstage lounge, where it wasn't her turn to appear just yet. She was today's star and had to make her entrance at the very end.
Tan Rou had no objections, seated alone in the exquisitely decorated lounge, she occasionally checked her phone for any new messages.
Suddenly, a gentle knock on the door caught Tan Rou's attention, and she looked up towards it.
"Who is it?" After a long silence from the other side, Tan Rou called out.
"It's me, Tan Rou." Zhuang Liu knocked again.
Hearing it was Zhuang Liu, Tan Rou dropped her reservations and responded, "The door isn't locked, come in by yourself."
Zhuang Liu entered, arriving without Xiao Mo and not using his wheelchair, appearing to have snuck away from others. Upon entering, he promptly closed the door behind him.
"Third Brother, what brings you here?" Tan Rou inquired.
