After the feast, everyone dispersed.
On the way to their accommodation, Zhou Gu noticed that they were alone. He reached out to take Su Rong's hand, "You were whispering with the marchioness all night. Since when do you two have so much to talk about? What were you discussing?"
Turning her head to glance at him, Su Rong wondered, "Are you drunk?"
Zhou Gu shook his head, "No."
Although reeking of alcohol, Su Rong noted that Zhou Gu was neither slurring his words nor staggering, and did not seem drunk at all. "It looks like your third brother is drunk," she said.
"Right, he's drunk. He can't hold his liquor like I can," Zhou Gu replied, winding back to his question, "You've still not answered my question."
Surveying her surroundings and sure they were alone, Su Rong lowered her voice, "The marchioness saw you two brothers and thought about your young sister, who is still unmarried in your residence. She's considering proposing a match to Ning Chi and asked for my opinion."
