There was no voice outside, nor was it the Waiter. Zhulan stood up, frowning, while Zhou Shuren pulled on her arm—who knew who it was outside.
Zhulan shook her head; there wasn't any danger now, but to be cautious, she carefully approached the door.
Zhou Shuren pulled Zhulan behind him, not giving her a chance, and blocked her as he opened the door. His face darkened; it was actually Zhang Sanni and Wang Xin.
Zhulan felt touched that Zhou Shuren was protecting her, yet was displeased that he had rushed to the front. Seeing Zhang Sanni and Wang Xin, Zhulan's expression soured greatly, "Why didn't you make a sound?"
Zhang Sanni didn't dare to speak, fearing that no one would come out if she did. She had only knocked absent-mindedly, thinking it was Scholar Zhou and his wife, and had confirmed it only when someone replied; indeed, it was Lady Zhou's voice. Now, only joy remained in her heart, without the slightest fear of Scholar Zhou's stern face.
