"I'm already very incompetent because I can't help my wife. I would be even more useless if I need you to ask for his help."
It was apparent that Lu Xingzhi did not want Jiang Yao to owe someone else a favor for him. Since he was the one who wanted to ask Du Chen, then he should be the one to ask for it.
Jiang Yao realized that Chu Sheng and Chen Jiaxian still waited for her, so she immediately hung up the call. She did not even tell Lu Xingzhi.
"Do you have a place to stay, Chu Seng?" Jiang Yao put her phone into her coat pocket and turned to speak to Chu Sheng. "If you haven't arranged for one, why don't you stay with me?"
Chu Sheng nodded as she took a pen and paper from her pocket and wrote a sentence for Jiang Yao.
Jiang Yao glanced at it and nodded. "Then let's talk in my room."
Chu Sheng had been waiting for Jiang Yao because she wanted to tell her about Zhou Xiaocheng. After she returned the notebook to Chu Sheng, Jiang Yao bade farewell to Chen Jiaxian and brought Chu Sheng to her room.
After they entered Jiang Yao's room, Chu Sheng did not even look around. Instead, she sat down at the table and began to write with her pen.
Jiang Yao went to get Chu Sheng some water. Chu Sheng only stopped writing when Jiang Yao went to her after she boiled some water.
Chu Sheng's notebook was palm-sized, so it was completely filled with words for the duration it took to boil the water.
As Jiang Yao sat down beside her, Chu Sheng pushed the notebook in front of Jiang Yao and showed it to her.
"Drink some water to warm your body," Jiang Yao said. She lowered her head and focused on the book that Chu Sheng handed her.
