A Gifted Composition (II)

That was Chen Mu's first time to use the "weak water" pen set after he had gotten it, but nothing about the way he used it made him look like an unfamiliar beginner. He picked up a slanted blade pen with his right hand and very carefully put the tip of it into the green stone bowl. Then he inserted two more different types of card marking pens.

Bo Wen's gaze was fixed on what was in the green bowl. He wasn't concerned about the "weak water," since although there weren't may such collectible items in the clan, there weren't so few either. All his attention was drawn to the clear liquid in the bowl. Whether it was its rich fragrance at the outset, or the subtle fragrance just then, they were fragrances that only the finest spices could produce. While one might say that he had been a little bit uncertain, he had become certain by then that the clear liquid in the small bowl was priceless.
