Bab 252: Morning Kitchen Kiss

With that parting shot, Wei Yan flicked his hands dry of water and proceeded to meet Xue Ning's father in tne yard, where he was raking up dead leaves.

"No need, it's good for an old man like me to put in some work in the morning," Tai Cheng rejected firmly as he made neat little piles of leaves. 

"What I'm more interested in knowing is what you think of your boss."

"Eh? You mean Young Master Sun?"

"Of course I'm referring to him. Who else is there?"

"Right… he's my boss. What is there to say?" Wei Yan said, shrugging even as a pained expression crossed his face.
