Zhang Dezheng, feeling embarrassed, bowed and said, "I'm really sorry, we have been a bit too anxious, so please forgive us."
Seeing that they had apologized, Yao Chengxuan didn't insist on having the last word, "Come in first."
He didn't invite them into the house but directed them to sit under the magnolia tree in the courtyard, "Tell me, what do you want with Luo Qiao?"
Zhang Dezheng looked up at the courtyard and asked, "Where is Luo Qiao?"
Zhang Dongze stood up and was about to look inside the house when Wu Peiling said, "Sit down for now, I'll go get you some water."
After speaking and exchanging a glance with Yao Chengxuan, seeing him nod slightly, she went to the kitchen to pour two bowls of water for them.
Then she turned into her sons' room and saw they were sleeping soundly, so she stepped back out.
