Chapter 4: Brave Step
'What should come will always come. I will deal with it when it comes.' Shen Xu thought and put the matter at the back of his mind.
More than the future, his current situation was more worrying.
He was still at risk of becoming the male lead's concubine and living a life that was worse than death.
Before that happened, he had to figure things out.
With a rising sense of urgency, Shen Xu went to the library.
The library was less than ten square metres and didn't have many things.
It had a bookshelf on one wall, a low jade table, and two jade mats.
There were many jade cards on the bookshelf, but Shen Xu walked to the jade table.
"What's in this?" He wondered and picked a wooden box from the table.
Without delay, he opened the box and found a red pearl nestled in a bed of silk.
"Is it another space?" Shen Xu muttered in confusion.
