In the chilly wind, the low iron gate of the villa opened, and a dark figure entered.
Zhou Xue led the visitor without looking at them, taking them to the second-floor study.
She gently knocked on the study door.
"Madam, the person is here."
"Enter." A woman's emotionless voice came from inside the room.
Zhou Xue opened the study door and respectfully stood aside. The visitor entered, and Zhou Xue closed the study door, then guarded it.
The dim light of the room made the not-so-large study a bit warmer. The woman sat behind the desk, holding a brush, her hair gently hanging beside her, looking graceful and elegant.
The newcomer took off their mask and hat, "Madam, long time no see."
The woman didn't raise her head, her hand holding the brush steady, "Ms. Bo, what brings you here in the middle of the night?"
"Madam, you flatter me. If it weren't for your kindness back then, I wouldn't be where I am today. I came here to repay you."
