After much persuasion, Zheng Yufei finally stopped pondering what Mr. Zheng and Mrs. Zheng were doing downstairs and reluctantly lay down on the bed.
Only when I saw that Zheng Yufei was settled did I head towards the door, intending to go downstairs for some pastries and to eavesdrop a bit, but I didn't expect to hear a loud "bang" just as I approached the door.
I was startled and stopped in my tracks right at the doorway. Instinctively looking back, luckily, Zheng Yufei hadn't heard it. I tiptoed out of the room, opening the door quietly.
After closing the room door, I didn't go downstairs but instead stopped at the corner of the second floor, where I could hear everything without being discovered.
