After breakfast, Song Cheng quietly pushed open the door, only to see Madam Tong and Ying sleeping together in the side room. One was a charming petite physician, the other a tall and heroic woman...
His heart stirred with the temptation to join them under the covers and enjoy the bliss of sharing their company.
However, a quick look at his own clothes, which were quite dirty, dissuaded him from the thought.
The noise of the door opening also woke the two women, who relaxed again upon seeing it was Song Cheng.
Ying crawled out of the bedding, still fully clothed as she had slept.
"Son-in-law, is everything alright?" the stoic heroine couldn't help but ask.
Song Cheng said, "It's nothing."
Then he added, "Thanks to Miss An's decisive command, we were able to get through last night safely."
