Calling out "dear," she finally made some sound.
It was a cough.
"Come in!" a man's voice came from the room.
Xia Zhisu became alert, "Where, where are you?"
"Your 7 o'clock direction, turn left, the door on your right hand." The voice came again.
Xia Zhisu followed the instructions, opened the door on the right, and peeked her head in, "Ling Tian'ao? Where are you?"
"I'm here."
Xia Zhisu looked down to see a row of steps in front of her, and below the steps, a large bath, with a man sitting inside!
And that man's right hand was in a cast, resting by the pool, his whole body soaked in the water.
It looked like he was bathing!!
Xia Zhisu immediately turned around, "I didn't know you were bathing, I'll go out..."
"Stay there."
Xia Zhisu stopped.
"Did this young master tell you to leave?" Ling Tian'ao asked.
His voice was sarcastic.
Xia Zhisu shook her head.
"Come here."
She had no choice but to go over.
Still with her back to him.
