When they reached the outer perimeter of the Hall of Diligent Government, the Empress Dowager passed off Zhou Ying to King An's Consort before separating.
When Zhou Ying followed Consort An to the main entrance, she saw Zhou Huaiming and Gu Chengrui waiting at the door.
When Zhou Huaiming and Gu Chengrui saw them, they quickly bowed to the old ladies. Seeing this, Consort An looked at Gu Chengrui and smiled. "I'll hand over your wife to you then. Come over to our residence whenever you're free."
"Thank you. I'll pay you a visit for sure." Gu Chengrui nodded.
He pulled Zhou Ying over to his side, and the three walked into the hall.
The husband and wife followed Zhou Huaiming to sit at the Zhou family's table.
Zhou Huaiming pushed some snacks from the table toward them and said, "Eat more. The food will get cold soon, so eat some to fill your stomach."
