Chapter 59: Chapter 52: Pleading (Additional Update)

Su Xingze took Zhou Gu out of the Residence to meet friends through literature, one of whom happened to be Jiang Xing.

On seeing Zhou Gu, Jiang Xing was reminded of his previous day's outing at the Peach Blossom Creek with Su Rong. Today, accompanied by Su Xingze, he felt a bitter sweetness in his heart. Zhou Gu's family background was something he could never hope to match. If it were not for the siblings Su Rong bringing him along here, he would probably be too intimidated to utter a single word in Zhou Gu's presence in the Capital City.

Su Xingze intentionally tested Zhou Gu, claiming this meeting was about meeting friends through literature, but he was also assessing Zhou Gu.
