The next morning, as promised, Rong Jian went outside early in the morning and caught a bird from outside. However, as Shen Tianyu was an unruly early riser, he waited until she naurally woke up before he killed it. After all, he got today off because of his wedding so he could afford to wait for her.
As he was silently staring at Shen Tianyu's sleeping face, her eyes quivered. He found her staring at him with drooping, beady eyes the color of the deep night.
"Awake?" He asked as he got up without disturbing her too much.
"Hmn... I felt someone staring at me... so it was you." She rubbed her eyes and her hand fell back down onto the blanket. As she stared at the red ceiling of their bed, Rong Jian put on his clothes.
"Oof..." Shen Tianyu decided she should get up so she removed the covers from herself and swung her legs over the edge of the bed before the rest of her body detached itself from the bed.
"Haah... I'm sure it wasn't that late when we went to sleep, why do I feel so tired..." She muttered to herself as she also got dressed. 'Is it to pay back for all the sleep I lost in my last life?' She wondered to herself as she glanced over at Rong Jian dealing with the bird on their bed.
"Are you unwell? That famous doctor, Tian Yu, is an acquaintance of yours right? Since he's here, why not have him take a look at you?" Rong Jian dusted his robes and cleaned his hands in a washbasin.
"Ah..." Shen Tianyu let out a noise of realization. She hadn't seen him in person since he arrived, since she made him in charge of Bai Yaoxuan's recovery so she kind of forgot he was even here. 'Hmm... strange. Usually, when he visited back in Yaodu, he'd barge into my room as soon as he landed to ask me about stuff... Who knew he had a considerate bone in his body. Though, it's probably Luo Shue that's holding him back. Yup, that seems more probable.'
"Yeah... he's here, huh... I need to go thank him for coming so I guess... What are your plans for today?" She asked her husband as they were walking through the compound. Servants bowed and greeted them along the way.
Though it could be said that the two were well-off, they weren't completely useless in everyday tasks. The basic knowledge of how to cook and get dressed were hammered into their heads by themselves. Just that they found it bothersome to wear more ceremonial clothes and therefore don't learn it, which leaves that task to the servants. As for how to clean their won spaces, well... if you're camping you don't really need to do that and neither do you if you're staying at an inn...
"I was thinking of just working, relaxing, and practicing my sword but if you're going to visit that famous doctor, I'll go with you. In case your body is unwell, I need to know what to do to take care of you."
"It doesn't hurt to have help, right?"
Shen Tianyu continued to eye him as they left through the doors of the Wangfu.
Though Shen Tianyu considered it early in the morning, they were already crowds of people crawling around the streets. Established shops setting up their storefronts, peddlers hawking their wares and a few food vendors cooking breakfast to sell. People were milling back and forth to and from work while a few guard were patrolling the streets.
At the Red Light district, there were customers leaving as the couple fought the flow of people. When Shen Tianyu was almost bumped into by a stumbling man reeking of alcohol, Rong Jian put an arm around her shoulders and gently pulled her out of the way. She looked up at him in surprise to find him staring down at her in a gentle way.
"Be careful. There sure are a lot of customers spilling out..." He told her as he let her go and settled on holding her hand.
As she was being pulled along, Shen Tianyu's gaze fell to their joined hands. 'This is so like cliché romance moment... should I be happy or something?'
When they arrived in front of Lavender Palace, which had the most traffic as there were courtesans saying goodbye to their latest customer, the guards standing by the gates greeted them with a nod of acknowledgment.
"Is he staying here?" Rong Jian asked even as they walked through the iron gates. Since they had come to the Red Light District, he had assumed she was coming here.
"Probably. Even if he isn't we can just ask." Shen Tianyu said from next to him as they walked side by side.
It seems he and Luo Shue were indeed staying in the third floor of Lavender Palace as one of their distinguished guests.
"Hey, you awake yet?" Since he was a famous doctor, he of course had his own room, while Luo Shue stayed in another. Shen Tianyu was the one to knock on the door to his room and call out to him.
There was a thud from behind the doors and a mass of indiscernible grumbling before the doors creaked open a crack.
"Who's it?" The voice of a sleepy middle-aged man emerged from the thin line.
"Tian Yu, it's me, Shen Tianyu." Hearing the name at the end, the person on the other side slammed the door shut. As the couple were looking at each other in questioning gazes, a string of curses emerged from the door and more noises of moving furniture were heard.
As the two were wondering what was going on, the door in front of them flung open and there appeared a man seemingly in his late 60s.
