Cannot be too cautious...
Thinking so, Gong Juechen made up his mind to go out for a while and make some arrangements.
Ye Zhi went to sleep right after her bath. Due to her pregnancy, she's been feeling quite sleepy lately and barely talks to Gong Juechen in the evenings; she falls asleep as soon as her head hits the pillow.
Only after seeing Ye Zhi fast asleep did Gong Juechen sneak out.
Before leaving, Gong Juechen also kissed Ye Zhi's forehead.
Without going to Nuan Huan Pavilion, Gong Juechen headed straight to the woods not far from his home through the backdoor.
The woods weren't large but not small either. As Gong Juechen walked a bit deeper into the woods, several men in black leaped down from the trees, kneeling respectfully in front of Gong Juechen as soon as they landed.
"Greetings, Building Master!"
