After confirming that the person inside had entered a deep sleep, Liu Qinian and Jiu Wentang circled around to the front door, ready to pry it open.
Before prying the door, Jiu Wentang pulled out a pair of thin gloves from his pocket and put them on.
Doors like this can only stop a gentleman, not a petty thief; thus, the two easily pried the door open.
"Creak—"
The ancient wooden door made a heavy sound.
Clearing the clouds to see the moon, the moonlight's clear glow illuminated everything inside the house brightly.
Jiu Wentang, holding Liu Qinian with one hand and a flashlight with the other, headed towards the inner room, "Haoshan, be gentle."
"Mm." Liu Qinian nodded.
Zhao Shuyue's bedroom was still locked, and Jiu Wentang took out his lock-picking tools and quickly pried the lock open.
The two of them walked into the bedroom together.
Zhao Shuyue was sleeping on the bed.
