Ah Jiu had just finished a round of busy work with his men and glanced at the water clock beside him, calling Xiao Li over.
"The girl hasn't returned yet?"
Xiao Li responded with a cupped hand, "In response to the master, not yet."
Ah Jiu looked at the water clock again, thinking to himself that she was so engrossed in her play outside that the sunset was approaching, yet she hadn't returned.
Just as he was speaking, Su Luo walked in, followed by Chi Liu.
Ah Jiu saw him and frowned slightly. After they paid their respects, he asked, "What matters?"
Chi Liu stepped forward and placed the Purple Jade Stone that Wufu won on the table, reporting the day's itinerary.
Hearing that Wufu went to drink flower wine with those people from the Riches Gambling House, Ah Jiu's temple throbbed with anger, and the cold aura around him seemed to spill out as if it were free.
No wonder she hadn't shown up at this hour—she dared to go to such a place.
