Chapter 40: Can Only Accept Fate

The two idle men soon began to learn about brewing tea in the house.

Inside the house, about half an hour leisurely passed, when Da Shitou, who was keeping watch outside the inn, hurried in to report, "Cen Futong is coming; he's on his way up the mountain."

Shi Chun immediately instructed Wu Jinliang, "Go greet him, and keep it low-key, try your best not to let Bian Weikang and his people see."

Although it was expected that the couple wouldn't be roaming outside, it was still better to be cautious.

"Alright." Wu Jinliang complied and called Da Shitou to identify the person.

It wasn't suitable for Da Shitou to stay at the scene of the transaction now, as direct involvement through Bowan Building could complicate matters.

Soon, the door opened, and Wu Jinliang entered first, nodding at Shi Chun, followed by a youth in brocade robes, of ordinary appearance and average height, carrying an air of reckless, indolent languor, his eyes showing a hint of contemptuous arrogance.
