During this moment, Liu Zhe had already used wooden sticks to construct a makeshift pole. He had the servant boy take off his outerwear and drape it over the pole, creating a makeshift screen, enough for Huo Hongyan and Qing He to sit beside it and tidy themselves up.
"Ru Mo, you sit here." Liu Zhe directly instructed Ru Mo to sit behind the screen. He himself did the same, sitting down nearby and skillfully starting a fire.
Ru Mo scratched his head, understanding he needed to avoid suspicion, and didn't dare look around. He focused intensely on igniting the fire and didn't do anything else, though he couldn't help but think, the young master must truly have feelings for Miss Huo, otherwise, why would he take such care of her? In the past, he was always the first to walk away when meeting girls, never showing any trace of affection or willingness to engage.
By the fire, Liu Zhe constructed a drying rack.
When Huo Hongyan emerged, she hesitated slightly upon seeing Liu Zhe's back.
