But once Zhao Ya arrived,
the pressure on the Inspection Envoy was enough to make Yelu commit acts of desperate sacrifice, and didn't this pressure, descending out of the blue, help him a great deal?
This was how to turn a disadvantage into an advantage.
Chen Jie thought this as he watched Yelu change into the clothes of an ordinary wealthy man, prompting Qimu Ge to change his clothes as well. Chen Jie, already dressed plainly, did not need to change.
He watched them bustling about, and Chen Jie took out a small porcelain bottle, applying a bit of white cream from inside onto the scar at the base of his right thumb.
Upon returning home last night, Chen Jie found his master, Bai Wenjing.
He asked if there was a medicine capable of removing scars, and upon hearing this, Bai Wenjing thought for a moment and concocted scar removal ointment for Chen Jie overnight, chastising Chen Jie for his wastefulness while doing so.
