章節 99: Chapter 99: Life and Death Decision

Distinctly different from the chaos and ruin elsewhere in the city,

the county magistrate's residence was a haven of tranquility and harmony.

In a side room, not only was a table full of food and drinks prepared, but two singers from Spring Pavilion had been invited, one to play music and the other to dance.

Xue Yuping stood at the door waiting, "Mr. Chen, please!"

"County Magistrate Xue does enjoy his leisure and elegance."

Chen Sansi sat down, "Do you have any orders for me?"

"Try the food first."

Xue Yuping spoke slowly, "There's no rush to discuss matters until Households Commander Tang returns."

Deliberately, Chen Sansi used his filthy hands to grab food from every dish on the table.

"..."

Xue Yuping put down his chopsticks, his appetite gone.

"Having been in the military for so long, I've grown increasingly unrefined. Surely you don't mind, right?"

Chen Sansi spoke with his mouth dripping with oil.
