The next day.
Jiang Man and Lu Xingzhou were awakened by the knocking of the servants.
"What's the matter?"
Lu Xingzhou got up to open the door in his robe, his face stern.
The servants usually knew their place and would not be so forward unless there was an emergency.
"Your aunt has arrived..."
The servant said softly.
"I see," Lu Xingzhou responded indifferently. "Please take care of my aunt; we'll be down shortly."
After closing the door, Jiang Man also got up in turn.
It was a stroke of luck that Lu Yingxue had come to the house two days prior, and the two of them had ended up sharing a room.
Having discussed matters about the aunt, Ye Xiangling, and Li Jin until late, she simply stayed to sleep here and did not return to her small room on the first floor.
Otherwise, if the aunt had caught them sleeping in separate rooms, there would have been an unavoidable fuss.
Quickly, they both got up to wash, got dressed together, and went downstairs.
