Chapter 182: Turning the Tide

Shi Hao stroked his chin, this was indeed the first time he had been abruptly abandoned halfway by a woman.

It certainly wasn't because his charm had declined—if his charm had been insufficient, how could he have made Qiaoqiao forget her master's matters and deliberately take him on a roundabout path to prolong their time together?

But that was enough!

Shi Hao sighed and arrived at the corner ahead, where he obediently turned left as instructed, but after walking a good distance, he found the area empty and deserted, without a person in sight.

He had no choice but to wander aimlessly.

After all, as soon as he encountered another person, he would just grab them and ask for directions.

While walking, he suddenly smelled the fragrance of medicine.

Someone was practicing alchemy.

Good, he could ask for directions now.
