Night.
"Shall we go back?" After finishing their meal, Jiang Ning asked.
Xie Xiaojiu hesitated upon hearing this and then said, "My lord, the snow is getting quite heavy, and it's too dark!"
"Understood," Jiang Ning nodded.
Just then.
Footsteps were heard.
The next moment.
Liuu Wanwan appeared from the back door of the great hall.
"Miss Xie, your room has been prepared! We're also heating up some water for you!"
Upon hearing this, Xie Xiaojiu was momentarily stunned, her eyes turning towards Jiang Ning, her mouth gaping slightly as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself.
At this moment, Jiang Ning couldn't help but smirk.
"Sister-in-law, no need! She can sleep in my room," he said.
"Sleep in your room?" Liuu Wanwan was taken aback and said, "Is that proper? Miss Xie is still an unmarried maiden."
Jiang Ning replied, "The past few nights I was away from home, I happened to stay at Miss Xie's house."
