Lu Yichen and Zhong Niangyao were chatting and laughing when suddenly a burst of footsteps were heard. However, the two remained seated without moving, leisurely sipping their tea.
Han An took a secluded path, walking a long detour before finally arriving at the National Master Hall.
As before, there were few people inside the National Master Hall, only a few palace maids serving. Therefore, finding Zhong Niangyao without encountering others was not a difficult task.
Upon reaching the garden, she saw Lu Yichen and Zhong Niangyao drinking tea in the pavilion.
Today, she had many matters to discuss with Zhong Niangyao. Yet, now that she saw Nianyao, she couldn't bring herself to step forward.
She knew that the people in the pavilion must have seen her. Yet, they did not speak; it was as if they didn't even see her standing there.
Taking a deep breath, Han An stepped forward and softly called out, "Master."
