At dawn, when Xiao Yun woke up, it was already bright outside the window.
He turned his head and saw Dugu Yan sleeping heavily on top of him. He gently kissed her face, carefully moved her aside, then got up and dressed.
He did not wake Dugu Yan. Lightening his footsteps, he pushed open the door and went out alone.
After breakfast, Xiao Yun headed to the residence of Vincent Fan Hosen, the Minister of Government Affairs.
By the time he arrived at the Hosen residence, Vincent Fan Hosen and his family had long been waiting at the entrance.
