Early the next morning.
"Little Jiu, Little Jiu?"
Once Guan Xilin had heard the news, he hurried over and bumped into Ye Jing on the way.
Old White sauntered over slowly to Ye Jing's side and said to the both of them: "Master went to sleep very late last night, she won't wake up until at least noon today. She also soundproofed her bedroom, so she won't hear you no matter how loud you shout."
"We heard that Ouyang Xiu has issued a challenge against Feng Jiu. Where did you meet him yesterday?" Guan Xilin asked, his brow twisted in worry.
"On the way back. Mistress said that if you both are to turn up, to tell you to go home and not to worry. She has no intention of accepting the challenge." Old White took a deep breath, sniffing at the fragrance coming from Ye Jing.
Ah, a woman's fragrance.
