The servant girls guarding outside the door could not help but blush when they heard the commotion in the room. They unconsciously distanced themselves from it.
It was not until the wee hours of the morning that the noise died down.
Chu Tao was very observant and did not disturb them.
Until it was almost noon, she heard the movement from inside that she knocked on the door.
From inside came Su Yan's hoarse and panicked voice. "Don't come in yet."
Chu Tao smiled but did not enter. Instead, she went to the kitchen to order a serving of soup to moisten their throats for lunch on that day.
In the room, Su Yan looked at Gu Ruoyun, who was dressed neatly and was reading a booklet. She complained, "Look at you. How am I going to face people in the future?"
Gu Ruoyun coaxed her with a good temper, "It's all my fault. Why don't I tell them not to talk nonsense?"
