3450: Meeting

Meeting

"Feng Jiu?" The man paused to think, and then said, "The original name of the Feng family's Eldest Miss was Feng Qingge, but I heard later that she was also called Feng Jiu. I'm not quite sure how that came about."1

"Oh? So it's true, she's really back!" Wanyan Shisan shifted his gaze and looked in front of him. He saw a group of people coming together, but other than a few guards, he didn't recognise anyone else. He was getting ready to leave when he saw Leng Hua come out and walk towards the airship.

When he saw this, he pushed through the crowd and called out, "Leng Hua! Leng Hua!" while waving his wine gourd to get his attention.

Leng Hua was about to get on the airship to get something when he heard the voice and turned to see who it was. He wasn't expecting to see Wanyan Shisan, so he walked over to him right away. Before he spoke, Wanyan Shisan quickly set up a soundproof boundary barrier. After that, a question was heard.

"Leng Hua, did Jun Jueshang also come with you?" Wanyan Shisan asked while keeping an eye on the gate of Feng Manor, in case Jun Jueshang suddenly came out.

Leng Hua smiled slightly upon seeing him and said gently, "Young Master Jun came too. He's been following us since we came back, saying he wants to find Miss Wanyan. He is sitting in the manor right now."

After a pause, Leng Hua asked, "How is Miss Wanyan doing now? Master was planning to settle down first and visit her when Young Master Jun is not paying attention."

"She has done nothing all day except eat and sleep. The only thing she does is walk around Peach Blossom Ridge and look at the flowers. We've been here for a few days now. I came into town out of boredom, hoping to gather some information, and I didn't expect to run into you coming home." 

Wanyan Shisan explained, glancing towards Feng Manor. "I must say, your manor's security is really tight. I tried to get in for a look, and almost got caught before even entering."

"Well, find a time and I'll take you in for a visit, meet the Old Patriarch and the Patriarch," Leng Hua suggested.

"Never mind, " Wanyan Shisan waved his hand. "As soon as I show up, wouldn't Jun Jueshang know my worrisome niece is here? You don't know this, but she actually conspired with your master and forced herself on Jun Jueshang before running away. I have no idea what would happen if he catches her."

When Leng Hua heard this, he just laughed and didn't say much. He knew a little bit about what was going on. He knew that his master had gone to make medicine back then, and Jun Jueshang's persistent pursuit of them all the way here was indication enough that he was desperate to find Wanyan Qianhua. He knew their story pretty well.

"I've been out for a while, my master is still waiting for me to bring some goods inside. I will mention this to my master later," Leng Hua replied as he looked warmly at Wanyan Shisan and asked if there was anything else.

"That's fine, then! There are a lot of people here, and you are the centre of attention right now. The whole city is watching you! If it weren't for my soundproof boundary barrier, a lot of people would be listening in." Wanyan Shisan said, dismissing the soundproof boundary barrier with a wave of his hand. "I'm leaving now." With that, he turned around and left.

After he left, Leng Hua boarded the airship to bring back a few items. Many people noticed their previous conversation and began to speculate: Who was that man? His face seemed unfamiliar.

Preparation for the evening banquet began at noon, following Feng Jiu's return. Meanwhile, at Peach Blossom Ridge, Wanyan Qianhua had just received the news.
