Chapter 290: Gu Qing's Silk Legs

Two hours later.

Zhao Chi woke up from the bed.

The day's fatigue had been completely cleared from his body, leaving him feeling clear-headed and refreshed.

After a while, Gu Qing pushed the door open and came in.

She rarely knocked when entering Zhao Chi's room, instead gently pushing the door and slipping in.

Zhao Chi knew she was afraid of waking him.

And he trusted Gu Qing completely — if she wanted to come in, he let her; he had never put up any guard against her.

This time, Gu Qing still gently pushed the door open.

Her lovely face peeked in: "Oh, my lord, you're already awake? It was so quiet I thought you were still sleeping."

"Mm, fully recovered. About us going out — did you tell Tang Ruan?"

"I told her everything. Tang Ruan says you can rest easy. Everyone else is still working — they'll probably be at it until 4 a. m. today."

"Good. Did Feng Xiu make you the face mask and cloak?"

"She did — she made three, and I brought them all."

"Good. Put this on."

"Silk stockings? I'm already wearing them."

Gu Qing switched into fashion mode, a layer of pale-white sheer silk covering her long legs.

White legs plus white silk — white upon white.

Zhao Chi laughed: "Take a look at this pair's attributes — they're far stronger than the ones you're wearing."

"Really?"

Gu Qing took it curiously.
