The next morning, Li Nuo woke up to find the bedding by his side had already been tidied, and his wife was nowhere to be seen.
He had slept well overall, probably the most peaceful and comfortable sleep he had since his arrival here.
Firstly, the couple Brother Strong and Song Qian hadn't been making a racket next door, and secondly, his wife had been sleeping by his side. Before drifting off, he was filled with a profound sense of security.
Sitting up in bed, he stretched his body, then got out of bed to find the toiletries already laid out on the table.
After washing up, Li Nuo stepped into the courtyard but didn't see his wife; however, Housekeeper Wu was already waiting there for him.
Housekeeper Wu was nominally the chief housekeeper of Li Mansion, but his main duty was to ensure Li Nuo's safety.
Wherever Li Nuo went, he would follow, and when outside, he would never stray more than a few steps from him.
