Chapter 34: Chapter 34

Huo Jingting didn't speak, his gaze as cold and condensed as ice.

About twenty minutes later, they arrived at the Gu Mansion. The streetlights shone in, casting a dark shadow on her face.

The butler on duty was somewhat surprised to see her return in the middle of the night and came over to greet her, "Miss Second, why did you suddenly come back at midnight?"

"Oh, I had a friend who wanted to meet my dad, so I brought him over," Gu Nanqiao downplayed, without going into too much detail.

The butler followed her gaze to the man standing by her side. In the shadow, the man's face seemed somewhat familiar. Upon realizing who it was, the butler was even more surprised but luckily maintained discretion and didn't ask further.

Huo Jingting glanced at her sidelong, commandingly, "Lead the way."

"..."

Gu Nanqiao took a deep breath to suppress the restlessness in her heart. She glared at him irritably before leading him inside.
