He made this choice only because he was forced to.
However, when he saw Song Yitang's hands empty, he worried about her life afterwards.
Going out wasn't out of the question, but going out now would be adding to the risk.
Song Yitang also considered this, but living with so many men was always inconvenient.
Zhao Shouzhong knew of her concerns and said, "Don't worry, the place has three floors. You can live on the top floor alone, and none of us will go up to disturb you."
"But, didn't you just get off the train? How come I don't see your luggage?"
That really stumped Song Yitang.
She dumbfoundedly looked at Zhao Shouzhong and took quite a while before saying, "When I arrived, I left it at the store, I didn't expect to leave so suddenly."
Zhao Shouzhong sighed with relief, glad that she hadn't lost her luggage.
Song Yitang had no choice but to go back to the store to retrieve her things from the space.
