Without rushing to put away the late-arriving treasure book, Jiang Chen went upstairs, heading first to Martial Saint's bedroom.
Without knocking, he grasped the doorknob and then abruptly twisted it.
"Click."
The door didn't swing open; instead, it resisted with force.
Jiang Chen released his grip and knocked on the door.
"Knock, knock, knock..."
The door opened.
The face of Martial Saint peeked out, delighted, without a hint of guilt, overflowing with emotion, "Bro, back already."
"What are you up to?"
"Doing homework."
Martial Saint responded with confidence, truly deserving a commendation.
Jiang Chen, as the guardian, did not rush to affirm, asking, "Why lock the door while doing homework?"
"Huh? Did I lock the door?"
Martial Saint was puzzled, then nonchalantly said, "Maybe it was just habit."
Jiang Chen kept his cool, entered the room, "Has Sister Shurui come back?"
