69: Chapter 69: Capture the Scene 69: Chapter 69: Capture the Scene Bo Jingshen looked thoughtfully at the door lock for a moment before following Su Lu into the house.

She bent over and rummaged through the shoe cabinet for a pair of slippers for him.

As she stood up, she nearly lost her balance, but Bo Jingshen firmly steadied her.

Su Lu straightened up and handed him the slippers, “Wear these.”

The slippers, men’s, didn’t look new.

Despite her feeling unwell and not in the best condition, Bo Jingshen couldn’t help but ask, “Are these Gu Xin’s?”

Su Lu, somewhat delirious from the fever, docile as a rabbit, shook her head while changing into her own indoor slippers, “He hardly stays here, these belong to my brother.”

When she said he hardly stayed here, it was because she had bought the apartment when she married Gu Xin.

In the first two years of their marriage, to keep up appearances for their parents, Gu Xin would sometimes spend a night here.

But that had ceased long ago, and the property had been transferred to Su Lu’s name early on.

It was her own private residence now, with Gu Xin only sometimes coming over for a cup of tea and a chat before leaving.

So there used to be some of Gu Xin’s things in the house, but over the last two years, virtually nothing remained.

Hearing that Gu Xin didn’t live here, Bo Jingshen raised an eyebrow, slipped on the slippers, and walked into the living room, silently surveying the surroundings.

It indeed looked like a woman’s single-occupancy home, with no wedding pictures of her and Gu Xin or anything of the sort.

On a side cabinet, there were framed photos of Su Lu with Cheng Youran, as well as Su Lu with Su Zhe and another boy, but none of Gu Xin.

Bo Jingshen silently observed his surroundings while he fetched her a glass of water, opened the medicine box, took out a fever reducer, and handed it to Su Lu.

Su Lu sat on the sofa, wrapped in a blanket.

Though foggy from fever, she somewhat belatedly grasped the situation, took the capsules, put them in her mouth, and swallowed them with water.

She looked up at Bo Jingshen.
