Zhong Xiu had her hands full with various tasks for the next few days. She would rush out of the house every day with the crack of the dawn, and wouldn't return home until it got dark.
Shi Mu had wanted to lend her a hand. However, Zhong Xiu was capable-enough to deal with the few miscellaneous matters regarding the preliminary preparations for the auction. This gave Shi Mu ample time to take a good rest.
He didn't insist on this either. After all, he wasn't a member of the Chamber of Commerce at present… He could undertake a lot of things here. And, he knew that the Chamber of Commerce of this city wouldn't say anything in this regard. But, it might bring some unnecessary troubles to Zhong Xiu.
However, Shi Mu hardly had any idle time apart from the morning and night practices every day.
