"Thank you, Scholar Ju, I'm extremely grateful," Wen Zan finally breathed a sigh of relief, personally seeing Ju Nanyi out. He was so grateful he almost wanted to offer a reward right there and then, but Ju Nanyi repeatedly declined until he finally accepted.
After returning to the courtyard and finishing the two tasks at hand, Ju Nanyi didn't wait for another shichen as usual. Once the time came, he left straightaway for Yiren Street. The piece of drawing paper hidden in his sleeve felt as heavy as a thousand catties, weighing his entire arm down like it was shackled by a lead weight, making him thoroughly uncomfortable.
Wen Zan liked those things, and it was no surprise that the Commandery Princess sought his service. Probably, Zheng Haoyuan had a hand in it too. Otherwise, with her personality, how could she willingly meet with an outsider?
