Gu Chengfeng waited outside the Imperial Palace for a long time, his temper flaring.
"Wang Xu, can you hurry up? I still need to pick up the kids!"
Delaying someone at work!
I'm counting to three, and if you're not out by then, I'll come in to find you!
Wang Xu came out.
Just yesterday, Wang Xu had led a search at Tianxiang Pavilion, and Gu Chengfeng had seen him. His official robe, with the clear insignia of a warrant officer, made it difficult for anyone not to recognize him.
After Wang Xu left Gao Gate, he boarded the carriage back to his residence.
Gu Chengfeng quietly followed.
Wang Xu wasn't in a hurry, and the carriage didn't go very fast. Moreover, as it gradually moved away from the Imperial Palace, the streets became crowded with more shops and pedestrians, which slowed the carriage down even further.
Gu Chengfeng maintained a not-too-close, not-too-distant distance.
Wang Xu's carriage was stopped by another carriage as it passed by a restaurant.
