Chapter 96 Each Own's Bottom Line (Part 1)

Chu Yu had set up teak chairs in the flower hall, one on each side of the high-legged, lacquered square table, which was adorned with some dried fruits and snacks. In the center stood a sheep fat jade bottle, from which sprouted a sprig of lush new willow.
