章 331: Chapter 311: Successive Steps (First Update)

Upon returning to the Shen Residence, Su Xingze woke up Su Rong. She rubbed her eyes, waved at him sleepily, held the umbrella and the hand warmer the Imperial Concubine had gifted her, and staggered to her own courtyard.

A few steps out, she seemed to wake up a bit and turned to Su Xingze, "Big Brother, I'm so tired. I won't meet Uncle and Aunt Shen. I already had dinner at the palace. Please tell them."

Su Xingze waved at her, "Got it, I'll go myself, you go back!"

Su Rong responded with an "mmhmm" and quickly walked away.

Su Xingze sighed and went towards the main house.

Returning to her room, Su Rong was now fully awake. She put down her hand warmer, undressed, quickly changed into her night clothes, extinguished the lamp to pretend to sleep, silently left her room, climbed over the wall to leave the Shen Residence, and headed straight for the Eastern Palace.
