Chapter 27: Headquarters (first update)

Yan Qing went to Ling Hua's yard at the Governor's Office. Even though Ling Hua was not in Jiangnan, her courtyard was still swept daily, remaining spotless without a trace of dust.

Crossing the threshold, Yan Qing thought about how he missed Ling Hua. He wondered if she was doing well in the Capital City and if there had been any further disturbances since he left. Was she exhausted?

As he pondered, he furrowed his brow, thinking that she was the type of person who, when faced with difficulties, would probably push herself even if she was tired.

The butler arrived quickly, instructing someone to fetch two barrels of water from the kitchen for Young Marquis and Young Master Yun Luo to bathe. He also urged the kitchen to hurry and prepare some of their favorite dishes to be brought to the courtyard.

The butler was very persistent, and the kitchen staff swiftly got busy. By the time Yan Qing and Yun Luo finished bathing, the food was already laid out on the table.
