TL - Chapter 38: Wu Yu 06 (2)

“It’s not far from the shop here, so I’ll head back now. You should go back to rest too. We’ll talk tomorrow.” I told her after leaving the hospital grounds. However, she seemed hesitant to reply.

“What’s wrong?”

“Why don’t you come over to my place? You have no one to look after you at the shop, and it’s a noisy place. Not to mention you’ll be put to work when the sun comes up. My place is just around here.
