Zhao Shu's face lit up with joy - he had finally achieved his goal of speaking with Officer Shao and Madame Shao. This moment had been long in the making, and he had meticulously planned for it.
For a considerable time, Zhao Shu had yearned to establish contact with them, but circumstances never permitted it. Fearful of the government office, he had to devise an alternative approach.
Now, an opportunity presented itself, and they had to seize it.
Upon concluding their conversation, to Zhao Shu's delight, Officer Shao and Madame Shao even agreed to chat with him. Although this gesture might not have meant much to others, for him, it signified a significant stride forward.
Overwhelmed with joy, Zhao Shu could barely contain his excitement.
As they strolled into town and settled at the intermediate tea house, Zhao Shu exchanged some polite words with Shao Yunduan before inquiring, "I have one question - why is Young Master Zhao investigating us?"
