Behind the doors, right in the middle of the grounds, was Lu Yingying, with whom Lu Sheng was seldom in contact. Presently, she was kneeling on the empty ground in the middle of the Manor, enduring the scorching heat from the glaring sun, biting her lips without a sound.
Her usual fair and clean appearance had turned into one drenched thoroughly in sweat. Her clothes stuck to her skin tightly, and line of salt had appeared on her back, left behind after her sweat evaporated.
"This is…?" Lu Sheng frowned and waved a guard standing nearby over. "What’s the matter with Fifth Young Miss?"
The guard replied helplessly, "Fifth Young Miss got involved with some scholar from the Institution… sigh…" he subtly gestured at his stomach.
