Zhou Chen hummed a tune and didn't turn back, heading straight towards the top floor of the Zuixian Pavilion at a leisurely pace.
Upon leaving the bamboo garden and just as he turned his head, he saw a man with a soft and ominous countenance leaning against the blue-tiled wall with his arms folded across his chest.
Sizi Yu.
Seeing the other party, Zhou Chen was not surprised and asked cheerfully,
"Yo, what brought you out here?"
Similar to Ying'er's style, Sizi Yu had been hiding in the shadows and hadn't come out these past days, to the point that Xu Yuan thought the only people protecting him were Zhou Chen and Ying'er.
Sizi Yu glanced at Zhou Chen, a smile playing on his lips,
"I saw you acting strangely and came out to ask, are you... planning to always follow the Third Young Master now?"
The Third Young Master's recent behavior, as well as the previous 'knocking' he had done to Zhou Chen, had all been observed by him.
