By the time for dinner, Mrs. Liu sent someone to urge him, and he sullenly entered Mrs. Liu's courtyard.
Through the window, he saw Mrs. Liu and Fu Rou were talking. As soon as he entered, the two of them stopped speaking. He was somewhat angry: "What are you whispering about?"
Mrs. Liu hurriedly smiled and stepped forward: "We were just chatting about some trivial matters, not whispering anything — Did something happen to you today? Why are you so angry? Could it be that Vice Minister Xu's side still isn't working out?"

"There's no problem with Vice Minister Xu. It's just that I encountered Mr. Du on the way." Fu Jun took a sip of tea and sighed.
Mrs. Liu was immediately stunned: "Mr. Du? What did he say?"
