Chapter 208: 20 Arrows

In the deep night, an old woman wearing a floral long skirt elegantly walked out of the wooden building.

Her graying hair was impeccably combed and tied into a bun, adorned with a peach-pink butterfly hairpin. She held a slender cigarette between her fingers, which were covered in peach-pink nail polish.

Mu Yao had seen Nan Mei several times, sometimes accompanying his master and sometimes by himself.

But no matter which occasion it was, this mature woman was always dressed exquisitely and elegantly, even in the depths of the night without exception.

It was as if she would never let anyone see her casual side.

From the creaking, aged staircase of the wooden building, the old woman walked down, her demeanor as if striding on the grandest stage.

"What's the matter?"

Stepping out of the stairway, Nan Mei cast a glance only at Mu Yao, then asked him the question.

Mu Yao immediately recounted in detail everything that had happened that day, without concealing anything.
