"You've really got some nerve. I've warned you so many times, yet you still dare to wander around," said the man, whose room had undergone multiple renovations. It contained not just a fireplace but also a stove and a heated brick bed. Even without a door installed, the room was still quite warm.
"I'm a rather curious person," Gao Ming also cradled a cup of water, yet showed no intention of drinking.
