Chapter 353: Turning Danger into Safety (2)_1
Cai Wei snorted, her lips curling into a cold smile. It seemed he was bent on seeking his own death. She pursed her lips, just about to call out ’collect’, when suddenly a man’s voice in Liaodan dialect rang out from outside.
The man said something she couldn’t comprehend in the Liaodan language. Saknu, who was disrobing, halted immediately, his movements coming to a standstill. He glanced at her with an unclear gaze, picked up the robe from the ground, put it on, and left.
Cai Wei breathed a sigh of relief, slid off the couch, and tiptoed to the window. She cracked open the window and peered outside.

After speaking, she casually added, "You all didn’t go out today?"
Mu Zhongqing spoke, "We wandered around looking at the lanterns all of last night, we were tired. So we didn’t go anywhere today and stayed in the house to watch Wen’er and Fei’er play chess. Now, Wen’er’s chess skills have improved a lot. He’s almost caught up with Fei’er..."
