The next evening, Lai Bao and Ruan Mei returned to their room before 11:30 for the first time, their hearts filled with anticipation, which motivated them to work much faster.
After taking a bath, Lai Bao and Ruan Mei hid in the bathroom, a cramped space crammed with various books, yellow paper, brushes, ink, vermillion, the Eight Diagrams Mirror, Copper Coins, and the like.
Lai Bao furrowed his brows in surprise, "Master, how did you manage to bring all these things in?"
The prison was strictly managed; usually, not even a knife and fork could be brought in, let alone such a large pile of items.
Ruan Mei flipped through the pile of books, and upon hearing his question, she smiled faintly and said, "Lai Bao, by next year or the year after, you'll understand that for us, bringing these things here is nothing but a simple task."
Lai Bao still couldn't figure out how those items got in.
