A Little Free Time? Come Have Some Tea
"If that's the case, then never mind. If you need our help, don't be shy—just ask." Murong Xiaoxiao promised earnestly.
Shi Yue nodded and continued, "By the way, how many disciples does our sect have now, and what arrangements have been made for them? Do you need me to help?"
"I'm not sure about that either. We'll have to ask Sect Leader Uncle. I'll find out and tell you later!"
After chatting for a while, Shi Yue got up to leave. Murong Xiaoxiao saw him off in person.
As they reached the courtyard gate, Murong Xiaoxiao hesitated briefly, then blushed and reminded him, "Fellow Daoist Li, be careful in all you do. Come by more often when you have time. We can have tea and chat."
After saying this, Murong Xiaoxiao turned and walked back inside.
"Have tea and chat when I have time? As if I have that kind of free time." Shi Yue scratched his head and thought to himself.
When he returned to the rented loft, Chen San and Lu Er greeted him with smiles as soon as he approached.
"Shopkeeper, you're back? Is there anything else you'd like us to do?" Chen San asked eagerly.
"That's right, Shopkeeper. Just give us the word if there's anything you need." Lu Er nodded in agreement, his face wreathed in a fawning smile.
Shi Yue walked around the loft. Seeing that everything was spotless inside and out, he nodded with satisfaction, then tossed each man two Mid-grade Spirit Stones and instructed them, "You did a good job. Prices in Flying Immortal City are rather high, so I'm paying you a month's wages in advance. Find somewhere to stay, then meet here at the hour of the Dragon two days from now.
