When the maids entered the room to tidy up, Qu Fulan was already sitting in front of the mirror, letting a maid style her hair.
The bloodstains and the disarray on the bed caused those tidying up to exchange knowing smiles.
Qu Fulan saw this scene in the mirror and felt her face blush and her heart race, as if caught doing something wrong, but fortunately, the two soon left.
Soon, all the details about the bridal chamber reached the ears of the Old Madam, though Qu Fulan was unaware of this.
Once she finished dressing, someone brought food over.
It turned out there would be a tea ceremony later, presumably with many people attending. Pei Ji'an feared Qu Fulan might be hungry, so he ordered some small dishes to be brought over first.
After the two hurriedly had breakfast, they headed out.
He took a couple of steps, then stopped, holding her soft hand, before moving forward again.
