Gu Muxue was at the top of the stairs. She walked slowly, tilting her head to try and eavesdrop on what Xue Rui and Old Gu were talking about.
She heard the words clearly enough, but without the full picture, she couldn't understand what they were discussing. Based on what she caught, it seemed to be about traditional Chinese medicine and wellness...
"I'm worried you'll get lost," Gu Qingshan said, showing no intention of leaving.
"Dad, our house is only so big. How could I get lost?" Gu Muxue asked curiously.
Gu Qingshan sighed. 'My daughter has no sense of self-preservation at all,' he thought. 'What if Xue Rui uses 'getting lost' as an excuse to go use your shower?'
That was precisely what he was trying to prevent.
"Muxue, hurry up and get washed and dried off. Don't catch a cold," Xue Rui urged.
"Hmm?" Gu Qingshan felt Xue Rui was being too chatty and dragged him to the third-floor bathroom.
