Zhi Wan was taken aback and looked up.
"Since you've eaten your fill, let's go," Lu Zhan said, already rising to his feet.
Zhi Wan immediately understood and followed suit. "I'm full."
"Mm," Lu Zhan grunted in acknowledgment. He looked at Old Madam Lu. "Grandmother, please take your time. I'll take my cousin back now." With that, he turned and strode out.
Zhi Wan curtsied to everyone and then hurried out after him.
Leaving everyone behind, each lost in their own thoughts.
Outside Fushou Hall, Zhi Wan saw Lu Zhan standing by the door, giving some instructions to Chen Jiu. Chen Jiu glanced in her direction, then walked away quickly.
Zhi Wan paused for a moment, then walked over and curtsied to Lu Zhan. "Thank you for helping me out of that situation tonight, Cousin."
Lu Zhan glanced at her and asked, "Are you full?"
Zhi Wan was startled. 'Didn't he just ask that?'
Just as she was about to nod, Lu Zhan said, "I'm not full. Let's go."
Zhi Wan: "..."
