Situ Xue read the contents of the medical book and realized the gravity of the situation. Glancing around, she cautiously said to Chu Qinghuang, "Where are you staying, Miss Chu? Why don't you come with me to the Situ Mansion?"
Knowing that this place had too many eyes and ears and was not a suitable spot for conversation, Chu Qinghuang nodded. She checked out of her room at the restaurant, followed Situ Xue into the carriage, and headed to the Situ Mansion. As soon as she stepped through the gates, Chu Qinghuang sensed a faint pressure in the air, for the mansion was heavily guarded by numerous powerful experts both openly and in secret. Seeing Situ Xue return with a stranger, they looked at Chu Qinghuang with extreme vigilance, and Chu Qinghuang could feel countless gazes locking onto her.
Sensing that Chu Qinghuang had noticed the atmosphere in the estate, Situ Xue offered a deeply apologetic explanation: "Please forgive me, Miss Chu. Because of this frail body of mine, my father and mother assign guards to stay close wherever I go, terrified that something might happen to me."
