"Huh? Who was that just now?"
Jiang Xiaobai stood in the doorway, surprise written all over his face.
Tang Ningshuang also glanced toward the inner room, her expression gradually turning peculiar.
"Oh, I think I know!"
Jiang Xiaobai's eyes flashed as he stepped back out, closing the door behind him.
