Bab 183: Chapter 182: Women Also Strive for the Future

As the sun was on the verge of setting, Zhou Shuyu, staying as a guest at the Liang family, was already growing anxious. The attendant he had sent out early in the morning to gather information had not yet returned; could something have happened?

A servant from the Liang family assigned to attend to the visiting young master came over again and enquired, "Young Master, it's getting late; would you like to have dinner now?"

Zhou Shuyu glanced at the sky and said with some effort, "Alright, serve the meal."

No sooner had the servant left to arrange the meal than Zhou Shuyu's manservant came in, followed by the very same attendant, Shun Yi, whom Zhou Shuyu had sent to Clear Water Village to gather news.

Shun Yi's clothes were in ordered state but his entire presence seemed dull and listless, his expression tinged with a hint of fear.

Zhou Shuyu immediately stood up and asked, "What happened? Did you encounter any trouble?" He hoped that His Highness Prince Yu was not involved.
